hi, i know i'm beating a dead horse here probably but i don't know how to delete obsolete backup pieces from TSM which were backupped with rman/tdpo of course ...
the thing is that from 77 nodes/database 3 of them didn't have BACKDEL set to YES so the node couldn't delete backups after each crosscheck and stuff ... so one DB which has 450GB has 20TB occupancy on tapes ... i will not mention the other 3 :-) in recovery catalogs only fresh and "active" backup pieces are visible as conditioned in scripts, management class i set upped as 1-0-0-0 ... so no problems here since anyways ... delete filespace * is an option of course but i (first) would like to ignore that option (or maybe not), delete backup from node does not work because BA client does not see API:ORACLE data (of course) ... so? what now? thanks for tips. //goran //backup admin TSM 5.4.1 @ AIX5.2
