I used use FILE type volumes to backup TSM database. But I can not delete
database backup volume with "expire inventory".
ANR0812I Inventory file expiration process 3 completed:
examined 2125 objects, deleting 10 backup objects, 0
archive
objects, 0 DB backup volumes, and 0 recovery plan files.
0 errors were encountered.
Do you have any idea ?
