In the help of del volh command, you can find :
DBSnapshot
Specifies to delete only records that contain information about
volumes used for snapshot database backups, and that meet the
specified date and time criteria. The latest snapshot database
backup will not be deleted.
DEVclass=classname
Specifies the device class name that was used to create the
database backups. This optional parameter can be used to
delete database backups created using a server-to-server
virtual volume device class. The type of the device class
must be SERVER. This parameter can only be used to delete
volume history entries of type BACKUPFULL, BACKUPINCR, or
DBSNAPSHOT.
A full, incremental, or snapshot database backup volume is
eligible to be deleted if all of the following conditions are
met:
+ The device class used to create the database backup
volume matches the specified device class
+ The volume was created on or before the specified date
and time
+ The volume is not part of the latest full plus
incremental database backup series if the specified
volume type is DBBackup, or snapshot database backup
series if the volume type is DBSnapshot
You can try :
del volh t=dbs force=y tod=today
