I have a question for the experts about retention. We are talking EV version 8.0 SP4.
When the EV installation was first put online the Journal policy was set to retain everything forever. With experience and practical use in the organsation I have been asked to reduce retention to 1 year for the journal. We currently have 2.5 years retained. I have added the 1 year retention category and allocated some scheduling time to implement it.
What happens now? Does all the old stuff older than 12 months start deleting itself or do I have to change something else to override the old archive rention policy?
If the older stuff still has the older retention policy will I need to do some sql commands to change it or does the new one modify old archives itself?
Any help would be appreciated.

I have realised the significance of all of this. Even though the original installer amde things simple by having one policy for everything what should have happened is havinfg separate policies to provide flexibilty. But we are where we are so now I have to get us to a better position.
Thanks for all the help.
