Holger,

Expiration of Domino database backups happens automatically according
to your policy settings. When you back up a new database, the previous
backups will follow the policies that you have set up for inactive
versions.
This works the same way that the standard TSM file-level backup
client works. If you do not think it is working correctly,
it's probably time for you to call IBM support.

Thanks,

Del
