You are correct !
look at it as a safety feature... if you could extend it, that would imply
being able to alter it in general which could lead to early deletion with a
reduction in duration.
Sooo you have to retrieve it and re-archive it with the retention they
really wanted to begin with :-(
later,

Subject: extending an archive's retention period
Gidday there.
I'm running ADSM 3.1.2.50 on Solaris 2.6.
I originally backed up some files for a user to keep for 16 days and now
I'm advised they need to keep it for 40 days. I think I know the answer is
"no" but is it possible to extend the retention period for an archive
that's already been taken? Or will I have to restore the data to somewhere
temporary and back it up again for longer?
Cheers.
