NOTE:

Retention time restrictions are:

You must have a Virtual Lock license to use the -retain option.

The minimum retention period is 1 hour; the maximum is
43,800 hours/1,825 days (5 years).

The default retention time is 336 hours (14 days).

The retention time cannot exceed the value of the StoreServ's
VVRetentionTimeMax.

You can set a retention time regardless of whether the policy
is numeric-based or expiration-based.

The retention time cannot be longer than the expiration time
(if the policy is expiration-based).

If you create a remote virtual copy and Remote Copy is set
up in asynchronous periodic mode, the retention time is
applied to the remote copy on the Remote Copy backup
server only. If Remote Copy is set up in synchronous mode,
the retention time is applied to both the remote copy on the
Remote Copy backup server and the virtual copy on the
Remote Copy primary server.

The retention time cannot be removed or reduced after it is
set.

-f

Optional. When used with the -retain option, does not request
confirmation for the retention time modification.

NOTE:

Setting the same expiration value and retention value for a virtual copy using setvc

command must be done at the same time.

EXAMPLE

The following command sets the expiration time for virtual copy 020409162103 to 2 hours:

HpRmCli Sql setvc -s server1 –t 020409162103 -exp 2h

The following command sets the expiration time for virtual copy 020409162103 to 30 days:

HpRmCli Sql setvc -s server1 –t 020409162103 -exp 30d

NOTE:

Use quotes ("") when an option value includes spaces.
