Gary - This is an old chestnut, which has been discussed before. Having -DELetefiles blow away directories is a Bad Idea. See my notes on topic "DELetefiles" in http://people.bu.edu/rbs/ ADSM.QuickFacts or in http://www.tsmwiki.com/tsmwiki .
Presently the only fix has been to logon onto the client after the archive + manually delete the empty file structure from the client.
Or a chaser schedule could run a client command to do that. I would make it an OS script which thoroughly assured that the directory structure was indeed empty before proceeding. Richard Sims
