I want to delete it !!!

[koenneke]

Hello,





I have a problem with deleting a file form a linux client.



Query backup looks like this



tsm> query backup /vmfs/vmhba0:0:0:8/*

Size Backup Date Mgmt Class A/I File

---- ----------- ---------- --- ----

21,474,836,992 B 10-11-2006 13:58:18 DEFAULT A /vmfs/vmhba0:0:0:8/yayayada.vmdk



I am using this command:



delete backup ?/vmfs/vmhba0:0:0:8/*" ?pick



tsm returns invalid options specified



delete backup ?/vmfs/vmhba0:0:0:8/yayayada.vmdk?



same message: invalid options specified.





I have authorization to delete file from the backup!!!





What is wrong?

Yeah.. and if a fly bothers you in the office - throw an atomic bomb..

P.S. I'd try:



del ba /vmfs/yayayada.vmdk -su=y -pick



if /vmfs is a filesystem. If its just a directory, I'd try



del ba /yayayada.vmdk -su=y -pick

I don't know which codepage you're using, but here in the forum, it looks like you're starting and ending the filespec with a questionmark. That wouldn't work, of course.



General help for problems like that:



Keep it simple - don't use quotes if you don't need them. Escape/quote wildcards when you're working from the shell. Try to avoid special charachters and rather run the risk that you have to scroll a bit more using pick.
