Thanx, Stan.

Our policy is to let the files disappeard on the volume. We get to
make those files not being discoveable, so the original copy should be
destroied.  I am looking the direction which allow me NOT to to
"recover all volume on disk, delete the files, than backup them
again". There are also some other files on same saveset where the
un-wanted files are. Seems tougher.
