I was wondering how to go about deleting old DB2 delta and incremental
backups from TSM.  I've looked at the redbook "Backing Up DB2 Using TSM"
and it mentions using the db2adutl command.  That command, however, only
allows the deletion of full, tablespace, and loadcopy backups.  I've got
over 9TB of DB2 backups listed as incremental and delta by the "db2adutl
query" command.  Does anyone know how to get rid of these old backups?

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.  Thanx!

The software levels are:
AIX 4.3.3 ML10
TSM 5.1.6.2 server
TSM 4.2.1.11 client
DB2 7.1.0.68
