The delete volume history command (del volh) allows you to specify the number 
of days to keep. If you have Disaster Recovery (DRM), that also has settings to 
control volume history.

You can run the del volh command daily from an administrative script.

Subject: Volhist file


Hello All!!!

I have a issue/question that I'm hoping someone out there knows the answer
to...
We just discoverd that our volhistory file is maintaining copies of
full/incr db backups since February 2002.  As most of you may have guessed,
we don't want it to do this...    :-)
Isn't there a parm that can be set somewhere to tell TSM how many versions
of this to keep?  Where is it?  How does one do this??

Please respond.  Thanks a bunch.
