I am running a tsm 5.2.7 (AIX) server and W2K3 client w/tsm 5.3 . I originally was backing up everything with a 90 day retention class but now I have some specific files that I only want keep for 9 days. I added an "include" statement for just the 2 directory structures I want changed and left the generic include alone. The order of the includes is as seen below.
Since I made the change newly backed up files in the directories noted are now backed up with 9day_retention , but the files that were previously backed up still have the 90day_retention management class on them. Can anyone explain why the old backups did not rebind with the new management class ? I know in the past if I changed the "include * mgmt_class" it would rebind everything. Thanks for the help and have a nice weekend, Ralph Include * 90DAY_RETENTION include "e:\Database backups\...\...\*.bak" 9DAY_RETENTION include "e:\Station Files\...\...\*.*" 9DAY_RETENTION
