The INACTIVATE BACKUP and INACTIVATE OBJECT commands change the qualified storage objects from an ACTIVE to an INACTIVE state. The syntax is shown below.

INActivate BAckup  namepattern
INActivate OBJect  namepattern segnamepattern

These commands operate only on active storage objects; otherwise, the commands operate in a similar way to DELETE. Objects are not deleted, but the file retention rules for the backup copy group expire the object when it becomes inactive.

If the TSM server policy limits the number of inactive versions of a storage object, the oldest version might expire.

For more details about the TSM storage management policies, refer to the Tivoli Storage Manager for Windows: Administrator’s Guide.
