Note that with HSM for windows migrated files expire after 365 days on the tsm server by default. Unlike on UNIX/Linux, the files are migrated to the archive pool on the tsm server. And the default retention period for files in the archive pool is 365 days.
If you want to change this, then update the archive copy group of the management class associated with your files and change the retver parameter from the default of 365 to a value which better serves your needs. - Afterwards do not forget to activate the policy set to which the management class belongs.
An example. Let's assume that you have a small installation and you are using the default tsm server settings. Your windows hsm client is then associated with the tsm server's policy domain named "standard", and the policy set "standard" has been activated for this domain. The default management class of this policy set is also named "standard". Now, in order to extend the retention period of your migrated files to let's say 3 years you must run two admin commands:
1. update the archive copy group
"upd copy standard standard standard t=a retver=1096"
2. activate the policy set
"act pol standard standard"
Now migrated file will be expired after 1096 days (3 years).
