Why don't you just backup the TMC? Surely you have a daily job that does this - and it should clear the AUDIT file when it runs the backup from what I remember.
>From Quickref: Action: Execute the backup program, TMSCOPY. All CA 1 utilities except TMSCOPY and TMSINIT will abend with a U0008 abend code until the backup is performed. When the Audit data set has no records left, all jobs requesting a tape mount will abend with a system code S7yy until the backup is performed. C.

Your statement "should I have done..." implies you already did this, so it doesn't appear to be an 0 dark 30 question where you didn't understand the manual and didn't want to wait for a return call from the vendor.
