Hi Timo.
Thanks for quick response. Yes, the problem occurred because initial retention was changed and these volumes were present from start and hence using the same old config. After goggling i came to know that whenever retention is configured, the first volume created is used as prototype for the next volumes and hence inherits the same characteristics. For resolving the problem i have gone to bat and manually edited all the problematic volumes and set the retention to new configuration policy and i think this will resolve my problem.
