Normally client side backups you can identify with with mminfo -q manual part... and they will take longest retention found for the client.  Scripted, it can be all one liner.

for ssid in ` ' -w ' ' -S $ssid;done

ssid list you can get via mminfo -q volume= -r ssid or for pool use pool in query.  Retention and browse time you can use as fixed values or dynamic ones (dynamic ones are for example '+3 months' which will extend time for 3 months as of now).

Ok.. so it has to be done in a two-step procedure?

I'm looking into the option of running it as a scheduled script... as I have some client-side-initiated rman-backups that have WAY to long retention when they are ran.. but I also now.. got some tips trying to adjust the retention from the rman script..
