Dear all,
Thank you for all of your suggestions. However, my situation is worst than that. My situation is as below.
1) I am not planning to upgrade my TDP to version 2.2 as my ADSM server is version v.3.1.2.50. It seems that this version of server cannot support TDP v2.2. Is that right? If not, please correct me.
2) Both old and upgraded DB backup are using the same node and filespace. But I just what to delete those backup from the old database.
Can anyone have any ideas about this issue which can help me? Thank you very much.
Regards,
Kathy Lai

If you are planning to upgrade your TDP to Version 2.2 (plus you need a
patch), it has a utility called TDPOSYNC. It lets you remove backup pieces
from the TSM DB, even if they are no longer in the RMAN catalog (a not
uncommon occurrence, we've found).

Kathy,
1) if you use either a different node name or a different filespace for the
backups of the new /upgraded DB you can issue a "delete filespace" on the
TSM.
2) you can create a new filespace where the backups go to and then,
according to your backup policy go back to 1) after your defined
"keep-the-backups" time.
3) if all your backups are on tapes, you could set them now to "readonly"
and delete all af them after you did enough backups - according to your
policy- again.
4) maybe there bis a simpler way and "Thiha" knows the answer ?

Subject: Delete TDP backup piece directory from ADSM
Dear all,
I have some backup pieces in the ADSM server which is still in active mode
and I can also find them in the catalog DB. However, the database that the
backup pieces belong to has already been upgraded and already registered to
another catalog DB. Therefore, I cannot remove those backup pieces through
RMAN of the orginal catalog DB anmore. How can I delete those old backup
pieces directory from the ADSM server.
Regards,
Kathy Lai
