APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The steps can be followed to reproduce:
  
  1. define a subrule to exclude some filespaces
  
  $define subrule <stgrule_name>  <subrule_name> <node_name>
  file=<fsid>,<fsid>,<fsid>,â ¦ nametype=fsid action=norepl
  
  2. run expiration against the node
  
  $expire inventory nodes=<node_name> wait=yes
  
  3. check the subrule members and find the decommissioned
  nonempty filespaces disappear

  following lines tell that the decommissioned filespace is
  deleted by expiration.
