Hi
According to the information you have supplied, it looks like this is the
only database backup that you have. Is this correct?
There can be multiple reasons to why you cannot delete a database backup
volume from the volume history:
1. The database is the last database backup that you have(including
incrementals)
2. The database is the last database within the specific device class. TSM
will not allow you to delete the last database backup, despite the fact
that you might have other database backups bound to other device classes.
Best Regards
