Thanks, Richard, I didn't know that one. 

It tells me that all my primary storage pools have 0 damaged files. I ran 
AUDIT volume on all primary pool volumes for that filespace, with no 
effect. I even tried RESET BACKUPoptimization, though I would have been 
surprised if it made a difference.

I suspect that the repair after the database problem removed the 
references between the files in question and the primary storage pools in 
which they were originally stored. Since they are still in the copypool, a 
"dsmc incr" makes no difference.

I think I shall open a call with TSM support.
