ANS2316E
Wildcards are not allowed in the VM name argument.

Explanation

When expiring or deleting a VM backup, the VM name must be specified exactly. The EXPIRE -OBJTYPE=VM command processes only one backup on each invocation. When -INACTIVE is present the DELETE BACKUP -OBJTYPE=VM command displays all versions of a single VM backup in a list from which to choose. If -INACTIVE is not present, this command expires the current active VM backup.

System action

The command is not executed.

User response

Specify only one VM name without wild cards. It may be in upper or lower case.
