I am having a problem deleting some old volhist entries where the target
was a device class of file.

"q volhist type=dbb" output shows 3 old entries from when I was playing
around with "File Device Class" and did a few "backup db
devclass=FILE_DEVCLASS type=full" commands.

Here is a sample volhist entry:

Date/Time: 03/30/05 16:41:09
Volume Type: BACKUPFULL
Backup Series: 405
Backup Operation: 0
Volume Seq: 1
DEVICE CLASS: FILE_DEVCLASS
Volume Name: /tsm/filelib/12218869.DBB
Volume Location:
Command:

The "q drm" output shows the proper DBB tapes that are in the state of
Vault and my virtual volumes DBB with the state Remote.   All these
volumes are properly going to pending and then deleted after the 7 day
DB Backup Series Expiration.  I would have expected the same result for
the database backups in question but they seem to want to stick around
for some reason.  None of the DBB to the FILE_DEVCLASS show up in "q
drm" which I take as a good sign. 

When I try to run "delete volhist todate='04/30/2005' type=dbb
devclass=FILE_DEVCLASS" I get the error "ANR6978E DELETE VOLHISTORY:
Invalid device class FILE_DEVCLASS".

I run "q devclass FILE_DEVCLASS f=d" and the devclass still exists.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Ed
