Hi all,

We use DB2 v7.2 on AIX.

For backup we use the following command:
     db2 backup database [db] online use tsm

We remove old backups from TSM as follows:
     db2adutl delete full keep 14 database [db]
     db2adutl delete logs between S[nnn].LOG and S[nnn].LOG database [db]

So we only need the last 14 backup's available on TSM.

Can you please tell me which values we have to use for NUM_DB_BACKUPS and
REC_HIS_RETENTN? The DB2 documentation is not very clear for us at this
point.


Our current values are:
     Number of database backups to retain   (NUM_DB_BACKUPS) = 14
     Recovery history retention (days)     (REC_HIS_RETENTN) = 366

We don't exactly understand the meaning of the REC_HIS_RETENTN value.

Best regards

Raoul Joemman
