Why not make a select to see wich managementclasses the the files are binded to?
Does the managementclass not longer exist in the domain, the domains grace 
period will take place. Read the manual under wich situation the grace period 
also will take place.

I think I had that problem too. I am not remember exactly what I have
done there, but as far as I remember the policy was removed exidently
and files never expired. So I recreated policy with the same name and
let those files expire. 

Sorry I can not give more clear answer, but nobody else responding to
you either. Hope it gives you some direction.

Hi,

Can anyone help me with next problem.

By coincidence I saw we have a lot of old file backups hanging around
which should have been expired a long time ago

For example we still have inactive file backups from October 2002 and
the corresponding Mgmt class is defined as follows :

Versions data exists = 5
Versions data deleted = 3
Retain extra versions = 90
Retain only version = 360

The original files were deleted on disk somewhere end of 2002.
I would expect that those backups should have been deleted after 360
days .... end 2003 ????

The client (Windows NT) is still at level 4.2.1.30 TSM Server (running
on Z/OS) is at level 5.1.80

We are running expiration process on a daily base

TIA

Paul
