We've exhausted our imagination. Everything we try results in 'no objects on 
server match query'.

delete backup -objtype=image "\\whq_fileserv_1\x$\*" -pick
delete backup -objtype=image "\\whq_fileserv_1\x$\TSMIMAGE-WINNT\*" -pick
delete backup -objtype=image "x:\*" -pick
delete backup -objtype=image "x:\TSMIMAGE-WINNT\*" -pick
delete backup -objtype=image "{\\whq_fileserv_1\x$}\TSMIMAGE-WINNT\*" -pick
delete backup -objtype=image "{\\whq_fileserve_1\x$}\*" -pick

They are image backups, and we need to make them go away. I do not have the 
option of deleting the filespace at the server, or I would have done it a while 
back.

If there's anything I missed above, let me know. I'm about to call TSM support 
on this. It bugs me that I KNOW what the object is called and where it came 
from, and yet we can't figure out the perverted TSM syntax to get rid of it.

Thanks -

Tom
