GFS Pool ignoring daily rentention setting

[andrie]

Hello,

I've seen the following behaviour with GFS Pools at multiple installations now and wanted to check if anyone else can confirm this:

We use GFS Pools for tape backup and want to set a daily retention for anything other than the default 14 days but after making the change and going back to the pool properties the daily retention is reverted to 14 days.
We are trying to set 30 days, 4 weeks, 12 months and 3 years but the daily setting is ignored.

Case #06119843

Regards
Andy

Hello Andy,

Can you please confirm that you've actually saved the changes? Retention changes could be applied either to new tapes only or to all existing media, so possibly you hit cancel during this prompt? Thank you!
