Brian - You didn't say whether the final ANR0812I message from the Expire
        Inventory reported that archive files were deleted.
Run the Expire Inventory with Quiet=No to assure that it visits the filespace
that your client supposedly deleted files from.  And run it without a limiting
Duration value so that it doesn't stop prematurely.
Try to get from the client a log of the deletions to assure that they
actually occurred.
Unfortunately, TSM doesn't let us SQL-query the flagging involved in
archive files so that we can see if they have been marked for deletion.
(In the Archives table, they look the same before and after Delete Archive.)
And, in all this, we presume that your client means files that were archived
with the standard client, as only those are treated by Expire Inventory:
files sent to the server via some API (which your client may loosely term
as "archiving") have to expired via the API.
