Make that 7 years for IRS purposes, then again are there regulatory
requirements to keep data longer than that, for instance anything that has a
serial number on it, or is needed for support agreements that are in place,
or any one of 100 other reasons why retention polices are different for
every company?
Corporate council has to chime in on that discussion since they will be
defending the eventual legal action. I've seen retention policies as short
as 90 days, and as long as forever. IT can't be directing retention
policies, only putting a cost on it. Want to keep all that data, OK, here's
what it will cost.
Then again changing the access path size seems to be a reasonable thing,
don't you think? If for no other reason than to avoid kicking off the
discussion I just referenced.

Try to convince The Powers That Be that data more than 5 years old should be
purged from the system! (:

Thx Charles. We have *max4gb on our access paths so first thing we are going
to do is change them to *max1tb
