Hello !

I have a customer with 6GB of data base. We upgrade to to V3.1.2.1 and
run expire inventory. The output of the process was:

ANR0812I Inventory file expiration process 3 completed:
                          examined 372334 objects, deleting 101915
backup objects,
                          0 archive objects, 0 DB backup volumes, and 0
recovery
                          plan files. 0 errors were encountered.
ANR0987I Process 3 for EXPIRE INVENTORY running in the
                          BACKGROUND processed 101915 items with a
                          complition state  of SUCCESS at 12:01:43.

How come the data base didn't shrink ? We run audit reclaim and audit db
as well, and the data base is still 6GB.

I checked the number of files per node (LL_NAME) and got the following
results:

adsm> select node_name,count(ll_name) as "# files"  from backups group
by node_name


NODE_NAME         # files
