You do not say if there is a lot more expiration than normal happening.

Exchange version 1 works like SQL
But that won't get rid of the COPYPOOL copies, will it? Relocating the
primary copy of backups from one primary pool to another doesn't affect the
copies already in the copy pool.
What about this:
1) EXPORT the node, by filespace if you want, specify FILEDATA=YES.
2) DELETE the filespaces.
Wanda,
Yes, that will, with the exception that if archives are retained after the
export, they will lock the filespace name. I am going through such a
evolution right now, and that is what happened with a node whose backup
data was exported, deleted, and imported; but whose archive data was

Yes that works to the extent that client data is collocated on the tapes.
