Description

Error Message

Backup sets will expire, but never delete.

Cause

The option "Locally managed Backup Exec server" should set the catalog mode to distributed for the MBES. In some cases the installation of this "Locally managed Backup Exec server" option may set the catalog mode for MBES to centralized. The option to change it may be greyed out and cannot be changed.

There are currently no plans to address this issue by way of a patch or hotfix in the current or previous versions of the software at the present time. While this issue may be resolved in a future major revision of the software at a later time, it is not currently scheduled for any release.  If you feel this issue has a direct business impact for you and your continued use of the product, please contact your Veritas Sales representative or the Veritas Sales group to discuss these concerns.
