File is created if does not exist or overwritten whenever sequential
volume operation is done - define a scratch to pool, empty volume
returning to scratch and deleted from pool, creation of objects tracked
through volhistory (DB backups, DB snapshots, backupsets,etc.), deletion
of objects in the volhistory.
volhist is just a plain-text export of internal TSM DB volume history
table.

Hi TSMers;

Perhaps a tough question to a newbie, but I would like
to know "when does the volume history file get created/updated"


thanks in advance
