Folks, I have seen some posts concerning this in the past, but I don't have a good feeling about my options. I have a volumeshistory file that is around 5 megs, and entries that go back to 1997. What I want to know is, how do I know for sure that I can delete a particular entry?

Sure you have data on those volumes, but you would never use the volhist file to do anything with them. The current wisdom suggests keeping these entries for as long as you keep your db backups. I'm with you, that seemed extreme so I use 30 days. Wanda Prather also had input
