A "move" of files is in effect a "delete" of the files in original location. If you look at dsmsched.log for next backup after a "move" you will see those files "expiring". Most likely answer is that they weren't being backed up to start with. Maybe there was an exclude for this folder? David B.

Then we had a restore request for the original tree which was moved. So we could not find any files to restore. We had the default backup copy group set to version exist 2, version delete 1, retain extra 30, and retain only 365. So why was there not any inactive files to restore for the original tree? Need help in an explanation of what happen. TSM client code 5.2.2.0 TSM server code 5.2.2.3 OS AIX 5.1.0.5 64bit So is a move of files on a system from one branch to another not a delete?
