Hello TSM'ers
Thought I would mail here before raising a call with IBM...
TSM V5.2.2.3 AIX 5.2
We have a problem whereby no DB backups are expiring, and slowly but
surely filling the library up with tapes that should be scratch
volumes...
DRMDBBACKUPEXPIREDAYS is 0
Del volhist t=dbb todate=today-7
Returns with
0 sequential volume history entries were deleted
select count(*) from volhistory where type like 'BACKUP%' gives
156 (!)
There are DBBAckups in the volhist from 18 Nov 2003...

Does anyone have any ideas? I looked into APAR IY00057 but it doesn't

Thanks,
Matt.
