In order to associate different files and directories with a management class (to achieve varied retention periods) you must use an include/exclude list and bind the non-default management classes to each statement by including the name of the management class at the end of the line. For instance,
Exclude /.../* Include /test/.../* oneweekmgmtclass Include /data/.../* onemonthmgmtclass Etc. Include / Exclude is your friend.

Hi, Can someone please suggest the best/preferred way of having different retention periods for different groups of files from one client. I've got a client that has two different groups of files, lets say /data and /test. /data needs to be retained for one month, /test for one week. I assume that to have each group held for different retention periods, I will have to set up two management classes each pointing to their own backup copy groups. But how do I associate the files with the intended management class/copy group? The client is defined to a single policy domain. I can't try include/exclude lists, as we don't use them! Is there another way? Cheers Paul This email and any attachments are confidential and intended for the addressee only.
