Re: Delete TDP backup piece directory from ADSM

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 "

Yep. They got me with that one, too. It's a not-very-well-documented change in the 4.2 client. The client now excludes those automatically. So you get "duplicate entry", if it's in your dsm.opt excludes even ONCE. You can see it if you start the command line version of the client and do "q i
