Re: Deleting a Volume in TSM

'Del vol XYZ' should work. If it is a copypool volume you can try to update access to readwrite, then it should be deleted from the storage pool. If you have problem in deleting the volume you can try KurtĀ“s suggenstion. Search for similar problems/solution once written bu Kelly Lipp years ago..

File data is compressed on-the-fly, as the data is read off the client disk and sent to the server. There is no buffering of the entire file (in memory or disk) in order to first compress it before sending it to the server. Likewise, with restore, the data is decompressed as it is sent from the
