If you truly do only have one node, you have effectively shot yourself
in the proverbial foot - every time you run the tdp to a different mgmt
class it is going to rebind EVERYTHING for that node.  So whatever
monthly/yearly backups you had were rebound to the daily class and
expired.

You need to define multiple nodenames if you want to maintain 3
different retentions.  You could get by with a single nodename by using
the COPY instead of full if you could settle for 2 different retentions.

Hi all

 

I have an EXCHANGE SERVER backing up via TDP for Exchange

 

I have 3 Management classes with different Retention periods i.e
EXCHANGE - 30 Days, EXCHANGE_MONTHLY - 365 DAYS and EXCHANGE_YEARLY -
2555 Days

 

I have 1 node and 4 schedules associated, i.e Daily Incremental, Weekly
Full, Monthly Full, Yearly Full

 

Each schedule points to a CMD file in the TDPEXCH directory that
includes its own version of the OPT file.

The Daily Incr and Weekly Full opt files point to EXCHANGE mgmt class,
Monthly opt file points to EXCHANGE_MONTHLY mgmt class etc.

 

During a restore that I have recently had to do, I can only see 30 days
worth of backups.

 

Any ideas what could be wrong. 

I am using TSM 5.3.5 and TDP for Exchange 5.3.4
