Wondering if ARCserve 11.5 SP2 can backup up files then set some sort of archive bit and auto delete things older than 30 days. So it'll check the files, if it's older than 30 days back it up and delete the files. Hope this makes sense, someone had mention it's possible but I can't find a feature to do it. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

ARCserve 11.5 SP2 backup then auto-delete 30 days old things...

It isn't really an ARCserve function to do this sort of thing - you would be looking more at something like BrightStor Storage Resource Manager to assist with this.
You could use filters in ARCserve to only backup files more than 30 days old and select the option in global options to delete files after backup - but I would be extremely wary of using this. It's very easy to make a mistake and the consequences can be catastrophic.
