Unless you specify a mgt class for DIRMC, it by design is bound to the mgt class/copy group in that Domain with the longest retention period as defined in the copy group. In other words, higher than anything else in that Policy Domain's Active Policy Set.
That's a quick answer, condensed from manual "TSM Installing the Clients" and the section for the DIRMC processing option. David Longo >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 05/03/02 09:46AM >>> Can someone clarify Edgardo's response. Particularly, "when you set up "NTWCLASS" with a higher retention number of versions". Higher than what? Is this by design? I also have ONLY directory structures going to mgmtclasses that I would not suspect. thx. -joe- -----Original Message----- From: Edgardo Moso [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, April 26, 2002 9:37 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Management Class problem That happens when you set up "NTWCLASS" with higher retention number of days or versions. The directory backup goes to the mgt classs with the highest retention. Ours, we specified the directory backup by using DIRMC "mgt classs". From: David Longo <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> on 04/26/2002 11:59 AM Please respond to "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: Subject: Management Class problem I have TSM server 4.2.1.10 on AIX 4.3.3 ML09. I have AIX clients TSM 4.2.1.23 and NT clients 4.2.1.20. This is a new setup, has been running a few months. I just noticed that "some" of the data from these clients is being bound to mgt class "NTWCLASS" and not to the default Class. I double checked the ACTIVE management class and backup copy groups. The "DEFAULTCLASS" is the default and NTWCLASS is not. (I have setup NTWCLASS, but not using it yet - or I thought not!!). I do not have ANY CLIENTOPSETS defined. I do not have these copygroups using each other as "NEXT". I checked the dsm.opt and dsm.sys and backup.excl files and I am not using this class. Using default or other special classes. Notice I said "some" of the data is going to wrong class, some of it is going to correct class. It is not clear on the data as to the pattern of what's going to wrong place. This data should all be bound to "default". Whats's the deal? David B.
