Hi, Alan. A bit of C hacking and you can use the API Client to rebind anything you want.

Hello Group, Just when you think you know how something works... I recently discovered that a user backup directory was not following standard naming conventions and for this reason I was keeping 1 year's worth of backups rather than 45 days. Their application creates unique names for each backup then deletes old backups. I added and include option for their backup directory for the 45 day management class and ran a backup. The existing files in the directory rebound correctly to the 45 day class however the TSM backups of the deleted files are still bound to the default management class and will not go away for a year. This is causing me to retain many many gigabytes more data than necessary. Is there any way to get those files rebound to the 45 day class?
