Jack,
>> Reading the docs for the TDP closely helps. I had to :(
I have been through what I've been able to find (there has been
relatively little of that compared to, say, Oracle or DB2 backups), but
alas I haven't been able to find anything about the server-side
copygroup configuration for a TDP Informix client. Unless I've missed
that page somewhere - please tell me I have as it seems like a fairly
fundamental piece of information to have available.
>> In any case, you need to have one client for the machine (system and
flat files), and another name for the TDP.
Yeah, the same as we have for other DB and cluster backups - we tend to
put them into a different policy domain too.

In any case, you need to have one client for the machine (system and

Subject: TDP Informix - copygroup retention values on Server?
Guys & especially Del Hoobler ;o),
New to Informix backups. One of our internal customers has an Informix
consultant in who has never used TSM before, and is looking to try out
some TDPI/ONBAR backups to our TSM servers. Looking at what (little)
documentation there is for TDPI on IBM.COM, I'm a little in the dark as
how to register these nodes best at the TSM server side.
I've created a new domain for these backups, but when it comes to
retver, reto etc in the backup and archive copygroups, I can't find any
guidance at all in the docs. From my understanding of I have been able
to discover, expiration is managed at the Informix end, so am I looking
at a similar setup to the retention settings I've used in the past for
DB2/Oracle backups?
Any guidance most welcome!
TSM Server Solaris 5.1.6.2, clients at 5.1.6.2 (Solaris probably 8 but
could be 9), don't know which version of TDP for Informix they might be
using, but I presume a latest version.
