Hey out there,
is there any other possibility than unloading the TSM-DB to "shrink"
the dbvol?

Reorganizing the TSM database is a complex kludge which utilizes a
utility classified as a Salvage utility, and subjects your server to
considerable downtime. The process may also uncover dormant problems in
your database which can result in further complexities, time, and
possible data jeopardy.

How about posting the big picture of what you are overall trying to
achieve? We can collectively advise better where overall goals are
defined.
