This tape was made when we upgraded last time, about a year ago if I remember 
it right. So it was only made for that purpose!

Hi

According to the information you have supplied, it looks like this is the only 
database backup that you have. Is this correct?

There can be multiple reasons to why you cannot delete a database backup volume 
from the volume history:

1. The database is the last database backup that you have(including
incrementals)

2. The database is the last database within the specific device class. TSM will 
not allow you to delete the last database backup, despite the fact that you 
might have other database backups bound to other device classes.

Best Regards

Daniel Sparrman

Evironment:

Server OS: Windows 2000
TSM ver: 5.1.7.0

I have an old tape that was used for a database backup once, that I want 
to
make a scratch tape of, but it wont work. Can anyone help me with this?
There is no problem if I do it on another tape.

q libvol
LB6            194ABCL1      Private                   Data        4,130
