Watch out with the delete filespace command. When doing so all the archived
files (comming from that filespace) are deleted too! And is that what you
want?
So check first if there are any archived files connected to that
filesystem - save then - and then you can do a delete filespace.

Subject: Re: how to EXPIRE UNIX files from unmounted/deleted file system
To delete a filesystem from backup of a UNIX system is easy.
To see for sure how it is, do a : q filespace nodename *
this will show you filespace names as stored. Then do
delete filespace nodename filespacename
Don't remember if it totally goes away then or at next expiration,
but it will be gone from all tapes for sure at next expiration/reclamation
run.

Hello all,
In my seemingly never ending quest to get my tape retention clean, I
have come across a UNIX CLIENT problem. There were some file systems that
were created for doing a temporary move/copy procedures. While the File
system existed, it was backed up. Now I have a tape that is 5 months old
and has a bunch of data on it that worthless but does not want to change to
a status of INACTIVE. I know I could take the tape and scratch it with a
DISCARD DATA option, but I want to do this in a clean way and make it a part
of the Stand Operating Procedure. Does anyone know the proper change to put
into the include/exclude list so this UNIX client will have these files
marked INACTIVE?
