Issue/Introduction
Sone DSNINDEX records created with RETPD=9999 have RETPD 9998 only. Why is the RETPD in some cases 1 day too short?
Environment
Release : 12.5
Component : CA Disk Backup and Restore
Resolution
This occurs only for jobs running over midnight. We need to assign the dsnexpdt (expiration date of the DSNINDEX record) as if the processing all takes place on the 1st day. Changing the value during the life of the job could mean creating a DSNINDEX record that expires later than the ARCHVOL record. This is working as desgined.
