Hi,

i installed Legato Networker on my system. Upon installation the sysdate was
set to
somewhere 2008 and changed accidentlich to 2020 which i corrected
afterwards.

Now i can backup and restore fine, but all volumes wont expire before 2020
(even
those labeled and written to after i changed the sysdate backup to 2003! ).

How do i fix this ?
 
Sounds weird. However you should be able to correct the problem as follows:

- use 'mminfo -q "query" -r "ssid" ' to find all save
sets involved.
- use 'nsrmm -S ssid -e "retention-time" ' to correct
the time for each save set.

Unfortunately, there is no retention time for the volume.
 
Hi,
I got the same problems. The save sets show the correct policy times (mminfo -p) but mminfo -m shows an expiration time that is longer. Re-labeling doesn't change anything.
 

"volretent" should be the same as the value "ssretent"
representing the save set retention period for the longest
lasting save set stored on that media.

Be careful - the old parameter "volexp" does not exist any
longer. As far as i remember, volexp was set to 2 years in
the future starting from the FIRST labeling process. This
was the time when a tape was considered to be worn. Of course, this value will not change if you relabel a tape.
