Dwight, Thanks for reply. I was afraid we may have to re-archive those file. You are right about the client focus etc.. but in this case, the Client is the darn Damagement!

AND I WON'T GUARANTEE ANYTHING... and you will still need to re-register the node as it was before. Yes, we need to be client focused but a lack of planning on their part does not constitute an emergency on ours... Also it is a security thing... if you could extend the retention period, you could also reduce it. Granted we, as admins, can just delete it, but having things as they are does provide a little extra security.

We have archived a number of files for an Oracle database with the default setting for the Management Class (4week retention). The need is to make sure this set is preserved beyond the 4week retention time. Thanks. - Kirti
