Expire after Days Non-usage . : 365. Migration Attributes Primary Days Non-usage . : 2 Level 1 Days Date/Days . : 10 Command or Auto Migrate . : BOTH What if the DSN is empty and not backed (because HSM doesn't backup empty dsns) would the dsn be deleted after 365 days non-usage / non referenced? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
