NDMP and expiration/reclamation

[fbijma]

Hi there,

I have a customer using NDMP, works realy well, but... He is now using quite a lot of tapes and me as well as the customer are wondering how reclamation and expiration is done for NDMP tapes.

Also, can we still user incremental for ever or do we need to make full backups once in a while. This is not very well described in the manuals.

Reclamation is not run on NDMP tapes. Expiration can not be done on NDMP also I have found out. It is related to versions you specify. Unless I am incorrect but I am today experiencing this issue.
