Error description
PK59911 provided special syntax for DELETE VOLUMEHISTORY to be able to delete and scratch orphaned BACKUPSET volumes that were left behind after the Archive.Objects entry was deleted. In some cases the nodes for these backupsets no longer exist preventing DELETE BACKUPSET from working. To prevent error prone manual database manipulation, this special syntax needs to be reinstated. Tivoli Storage Manager Versions Affected: 6.1 Server on all supported platforms. Initial Impact: low Additional Keywords: zz61 TSM volhist IC28573
Local fix
If possible, cleanup orphaned backupsets in volume history prior to upgrading to 6.1. Otherwise only a manual option exists that must be analyzed with a support engineer's assistance.
