Typically, you define a maximum size for the storage pool.  The problem here
is that the TDP is different and Oracle does not preannounce the object
size.  So, I think it will get to 20GB fail and  then resend the object, but
TDP for Oracle may not be able to resend, thus it will just fail.  This is
just a stab at what may happen.  I have never seen it before.

Question:  When an object is passed via TDP to TSM for backup, does the
defined storage pool in TSM have to have enough space to backup the entire
object?  If the storage pool has 20GB defined, but the object is 45GB, won't
the backup spill over to the storage pool specified in the next storage
pool?

Mark,

This is from the TDP for Oracle manual!

RMAN generates unique backup file names. Because all backup objects inserted
into the TSM backup storage pool have unique file names, they never expire
on the TSM server. As a result, TDP for Oracle requires these special TSM
policy domain settings:

Backup Copy Group Values TDP for Oracle provides a delete function to remove
unwanted backup objects from the TSM server. However, for the delete
function to work, the following backup copy group parameters must be set:

6VERDELETED=0
6RETONLY=0

Then, when TDP for Oracle marks a backup object inactive, that object is
deleted from the TSM server the next time expiration processing occurs. A
backup object is marked inactive when you delete it through the TDP for
Oracle interface.

Notes:
1. The TSM administrator must also register your node by specifying
BACKDELETE=YES in order for backup objects to be deleted.

Hi all, we have a problem in regard to expiring data after Rman has deleted
the data. We have taken the retention values down to 1 version with the
RETONLY and VERDELETED to 0. When we do a select statement, they do show
inactive, but are not expiring.....Do I have a TSM DB problem, or is there
something else I'm missing???? Thanks for your help!

Thanks, Mark Hayden
