Whats the knock on effect of not clearing your volhist anyway? Short of getting a large text file hanging around.

For STGNEW, STGDELETE, STGREUSE entries, there is no use for them once your oldest DB backup has expired, but it's OK to keep them around longer. Be careful though, clearing out the VOLHIST, if you occasionally create BACKUPSET or EXPORT tapes - if you delete those VOLHIST entries, the volumes will go back to scratch state and can get written over.
