Thanx everyone for the replies. It's all clear to me now.............but I still find it strange;-) I defined a client option set and updated all my client nodes except the one that needs the LOG_POLICY-MC managementclass to make use of this option set.
Kind regards, Jerry >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 10/26/01 04:13PM >>> Yes, this is perfectly normal. I am guessing that the LOG_POLICY-MC management class has a RETONLY value equal to or greater than that of your STANDARD management class. The TSM client binds directories to the management class with the largest RETONLY setting. If two or more management classes have the largest RETONLY setting, then it is undocumented as to which class will be selected.

Hello everyone, I have noticed something strange. In my policy domain I have two management classes. One is called STANDARD and the other is called LOG_POLICY-MC. I want to use the last one only for my log server so I included the following line in my include/exclude file: INclude /logs/.../* log_policy-mc Managementclass STANDARD is the default managementclass. Why is it that all my other systems also use the LOG_POLICY-MC managementclass? It seems that the directories on my other systems are all bound to this managementclass. This can't be normal............can it??? Jerry Caupain
