Re: [Networker] Client Browse and Retention Policies

Stephen,

yes, that is the only way to do it. You may also have to create separate
pools for the different backups.

Andrew McGeorge

p.s. you can use nsradmin to dump a listing of the current clients and their
attributes, and then modify the listing to make a script that will use
nsradmin to create the new clients required.

Subject: [Networker] Client Browse and Retention Policies


I am running Legato Networker 6.0.2 bld 251 on a SUN E450...

My current setup includes one client entry for every client that I am
backing up.  My current browse and retention policies are set for 2
years on most every client.  I currently do INCREMENTALS Monday through
Friday, and FULLS on the weekends which are both controlled by Groups
which go to two different batches of tapes (DAILY & FULL).

I want to automate my current manual process of recycling as I am sure
you can see why with 678 tapes in the autochanger.

QUESTION...
Is the only way to have the incrementals auto-recycle at 5 weeks, would
be to create a second instance of the client (same name), and set it up
for incrementals with a 5 week policy and the other for fulls with a 2
year policy?

Thank you in advance,
Steve
