So, as a test, I did this mminfo on a volume:

mminfo -q volume=896597 -r 
ssid,client,name,sscreate(18),ssretent(18),ssflags,state,volretent

And got back this (heavily snipped):


 ssid      client     name                               ss created 
retention time  ssflags state  expires
2677082318 admin_nt13 MSSQL:                         7/30/2008 08:35 PM 
9/30/2008 11:59 PM vF          9/30/2008

SO, my question:

We see that the rentention on the volume expires 2008-09-30, and that this 
particular saveset should have expired last night (it is 2008-10-01, as I 
write this, past the retention time/date). So why isn't this saveset 
expired? No saveset on this volume has a "volretent" later than 
2008-09-30.

And why wouldn't the whole volume be recyclable, then? Why does it show as 
"appendable"?
