CmTivoliManagementClass Properties

Specifies a ClassDescription object containing the fixed description (immutable metadata) of the class from which this object is instantiated.

User-readable text that describes an object.

The text is not locale-specific to the retrieving user except for the following classes:

• ClassDescription
• PropertyDescription
• ClassDefinition
• PropertyTemplate
• PropertyDefinition

The name for this object.

For most classes, this property is read-only and returns the value of the designated name property for the object, or its ID if there is no name property. If ClassDescription.NamePropertyIndex has a value, this property contains the value of the designated name property. If there is no designated name property value, and the object has an Id property, this property contains the string value of the Id property. If neither of these conditions is satisfied, this property contains an empty string.

For a ComponentRelationship object, this property is read/write and specifies the name of the object.

The minimum number of days to retain an object that has been archived with an IBM® Tivoli® Storage Manager server before it is deleted. For management classes that represent an event retention scheme, this property determines the length of the retention period; otherwise, this property is ignored.

Specifies the type of retention scheme for a management class: chronological or event. The setting of this property determines how the retention periods specified by the TSMRetentionPeriod and TSMMinimumRetention properties will be interpreted.

This property can have one of the following values:

• 0: Specifies a chronological retention scheme. The retention period is determined by the value of the TSMRetentionPeriod property. After a document is checked in for the first time, the retention period is initiated and a hold is place on the document to prevent deletion in the IBM® Tivoli® Storage Manager archive until after the retention period has expired.
• 1: Specifies an event retention scheme. The retention period is determined by the value of the TSMMinimumRetention property. In this type of retention scheme, you must set the TSMRetentionPeriod property to 0. The retention period is initiated after an object has been deleted from an object store.

The number of days to retain a Content Engine object that has been archived with an IBM® Tivoli® Storage Manager server before it is deleted. For management classes that represent a chronological retention scheme, this property determines the length of the retention period; otherwise, this property must be set to 0.
