If you are working directly on your TSM server, save those commands into
a file:  blah.txt

>From the TSM admin command line, type:  macro  blah.txt


If you are working from the ADMIN GUI, 
Go to Object View -> Automation -> Server Scripts
Save those lines as a script.

>From the command line, type:  RUN scriptname

>From the ISC, you can do the same thing by opening server Properties and
creating a script.

Subject: Re: wildcard del vol?

Well, from various fiddlings I have a text file from a SELECT with a
series of del files as so:

del vol /var/diskpool/satacopyvoc/00008738.BFS discard=yes wait=yes

del vol /var/diskpool/satacopyvoc/0000873E.BFS discard=yes wait=yes

How do I get TSM to execute each of these commands?

dsmadmc -dataonly -tab " select 'del vol ',volume_name,' wait=yes'
where your_criterion_here " > something.macro

then

TSM:your_server > macro something.macro
