What about retv for t=a. I know that on TDP for SAP is it does everything as archives so it may actually be your archives that aren't going away. You do need to make sure that retv is greater then or equal to how long you keep them in TDP. Becky

I see it hitting the TSM clients as well as the TDP for SQL clients, however I do not see the messages for the TDP for Oracle clients. I have used RMAN to expire and delete the backups that are older than 10 days, but are still not getting any tape storage back. My TSM server is Win2k Sp2 4.1.6 and my client is Win2k Sp2 TDP 2.2 TSM 4.2.1.20. I have double checked the settings for verdeleted and retonly and both are set to 0. Am I missing something here.
