Fields

Field	Description
Archive Pool Name	Identifying name (max. 8 characters; the first character must be alphabetic) The combination of archive pool name and owner must be unique.
Archive Ret. Pd.	Archive retention period in days Note: To ensure that there is only one best-matching archive pool for each list, the combination of archive medium, archive retention period, and owner must be unique. If several archive pools have the same owner and archive medium, these archive pools must have different archive retention periods.
Archive Media Name	Legal values are: Tape Disk (DASD) Odisk (optical disk) Ctera (Centera)
Archive Pool Owner	The owner is used for security and archiving. Security: The owner is passed to the security exit and can be used for defining security profiles (optional; max. 8 characters). Archiving: To be assigned to an archive pool, the owner of the pool definition and the owner of the list definition must be identical.
Archive Pool Title	Descriptive title (max. 50 characters)
Calculate Expiration Date by Start Date	Controls the basis on which the calculation of the archive expiration date takes place: No Date of the archive run (default) Yes Next date according to your input in the Start Date field
Start Date	Start date for the calculation of the archive expiration date (day and month according to your date mask) Example: Date of the archive run = 2018-10-29 Start Date = 01-01 Calculate Expiration Date by Start Date = Yes Archive Ret. Pd. = 365 days Result: Archive Expiration Date = 2019-12-31
Order for Reload	Determines the order in which the subpools of this archive pool are accessed when data is reloaded The default value for this field is ASIS (as is), which means that the entry in the Order for Reload field in the subpool definition determines the reload order. To change the default reload order, enter a numeric value between 1 and 99 to direct all reload requests to the subpool whose reload order corresponds to this value.
