I've been playing around with export/import using server-2-server virtual volumes with some success. We have be migrating one of our clients off OS390 to AIX TSM server..so I wanted to be prepared.
I was able to export from TEST1 to TEST2, and then import into TEST2 with no problems. But now I want to delete the virtual volumes since I'm done with them. I did a DEL VOLH T=EXPORT TOD=TODAY and it reported that 2 volumes were deleted. But when I query on TEST2 I still see the archive objects in the storage pool. The DEL VOLH seems to have removed the Volumehistory records, but didn't delete the archive objects. I ran RECONCILE VOLUMES and it said no problems. I ran EXPIRE INVENTORY on both servers and nothing was expired. How do I make sure that the archive objects related to the export volumes are deleted from the TEST2 server????? Bill Boyer DSS, Inc.
