Short answer is "no". The files are still marked active. In fact if you
actually remove the drive, TSM will keep the files around forever since they
are
marked active. You actually have to remove the filespace to get rid of them, or
reattach the drive, delete the files, and perform a backup.
It is the same thing as filesystems in Unix. If you remove a filesystem, the
files within it are still marked active in TSM.
