My employer removed an HP-UX Oracle server from service a couple of years ago. When the system was active it performed flat file backups with the TSM backup/archive client and Oracle database backups with TSM for Databases. My department has been directed to retain both types of backup for 25 years to meet regulatory requirements.
The system had a 200 value unit processor configuration. I know we will need to earmark 200 TSM Extended Edition value units for the system for as long as we retain the backup files. Will we also need to earmark 200 TSM for Databases value units for the system to legitimize retention of the Oracle backups? Thomas Denier
