Management class definition appears ok but not functioning

Tim Brown · Guest

Have a mgmt class defined that was working but for some reason it
appears
to not be.

Shouldnt the first 3 entries be expired ? They are bound to SQLBACK

Based on this definition any file bound to SQLBACK should be deleted
from
TSM if the file has been deleted from the file system more than 3 days
ago.

The versions should be deleted 3 days after expiration from the TSM server
database. When were they actually expired? Verbose dsmsched.log would show
this, assuming scheduled full incremental is used to perform the backup
that would have expired the files. Also, are you sure those files are
bound to SQLBACK?
