I'm having trouble with "query archive" on a Solaris client.

Users sometimes "loose" archive files.  When a home directory is moved
from one file system to another, files archived from the former
directory are left 'dangling.'  When the user asks where his (her)
archived files are I will try to do a global query for all files
archived from a particular node.  According to the "dsmc help, query
archive" an example is given:

 -SUbdir=value
     Specifies that all subdirectories below the directory indicated
     in the dsmc QUERY ARCHIVE command will be included in the
     search.  To display a list of all archived files including those
     in subdirectories enter:

       Query ARchive "/*" -SUbdir=yes

     If a subdirectory is a mounted file system, ADSM does not
     include the files in that subdirectory with the SUBDIR option.

When I issue 'dsmc q archive "/*" -subdir=yes" I get 'ANS4095E No files
matching search criteria were found". When I execute 'dsmc q archive
"/home/mydir/*" -subdir=yes' it does indicate files are archived for the
node.

Has anybody experienced this?
Is there a way I can query all files archived from a node?

Thanks for any assistance,
