SET DRMRPFEXPIREDAYS (Set Criteria for Recovery Plan File Expiration)

Use this command to specify when recovery plan files are eligible for expiration. This command and expiration processing apply only to recovery plan files that were created with the DEVCLASS parameter specified on the PREPARE command (that is, virtual volumes of type RPFILE and RPSNAPSHOT). Expiration processing on the source server expires plan files stored on the target server. Locally created recovery plan files are not expired.

An RPFILE file is associated with a full plus incremental database backup series. An RPFSNAPSHOT file is associated with a database snapshot backup series.

Note:
The latest RPFILE and RPFSNAPSHOT files are never deleted.

A recovery plan file is eligible for expiration if both of the following are true:

See the EXPIRE INVENTORY command for more information about expiration processing.
