Well, this is all fine and good but how do I resolve it?

I did the query and there is a single (mtdata/mtstore.nsf) file dated
05/27/08.  All others are dated within the last 60-days.

The TSM server has a single purpose.......Notes/Domino backups.

There are *NO* management classes with durations longer than 180-days.

Yes!  We had this problem once,  solved it by using that command and
finding some really old backups still active.  There were some ancient
*.NTF files that were logged and were hanging on to the *.TXN files in
TSM.  I forget exactly why those *.NTF files were not getting backed up
again, or why they were logged...
