Wanda... or anyone... one question. When changing retention settings for a
management class, are they immediately processed by TSM or does the next
backup have to run to rebind all the files to the new class settings ?

If it is the latter, the files that no longer exist on the client, but are
still being retained, will not be rebound... They will stay with the same
retention settings, right ?

>>> I believe it takes effect as soon as you activate the policy set that
has the new management class/copy group retention settings.
>>>(You aren't changing the management class the file is bound to, so it
doesn't have to rebind.)
>>>Anybody have evidence to the contrary?
