Hey gang,

TSM V3.7.1 for NT

Unbeknownst to me, the system clock on my TSM server was set in future time.
I guess it thought a Y2K test was in order.  The date was set to 1/20/2000
for a few days.  DB Backups were run during this time.  I then discovered
the problem and set the date correctly.  So I've got dbbackup entries in the
future.  I was able to delete a couple of them by doing todate=today+30, but
I couldn't get them all.  So now I've got dbbackups from a month from now
and some from a few days ago until I ran out of tapes in the library.  So
simple, right?  Delete the volhist records using delete volhist type=dbb
todate=today.  That isn't working.  I'm getting a "0 volume history records
deleted."

Any ideas are appreciated.  I've considered going into future time again and
doing another db backup and then trying to delete all of the previous ones,
but that still leaves me in a bit of a bind as I'd really like to be in
present time!

Thanks,
