I'm sure this question has been asked many times but I want to be
sure what
is going on:

A mgnt class has been defined so that 5 versions of a file are
kept, with a
retention of 30 days.
A file that is changed daily is backed up for 5 consecutive days.
The next
backup is taken 3 months later.
What happens to the inactive files?

The inactive files, that are older than 30 days will be deleted from the
backup storage the next time you run EXPIRE INVENTORY on your tsm server.
