While type=backupset is not listed as an option, it does work. It is a
holdover from version 4.1 days. There was a bug in the 4.2 days that
prevented some backupsets from being deleted with the DEL BACKUPSET
command; you could delete them with

        del volh type=backupset volume=<volume_name> todate=<date>

which is also undocumented, I believe.

That's correct. I've used it in the past to delete single-volume
backupsets successfully. In this case, it fails with the error in
my original post. I figure I'll have to raise this with Tivoli
directly.
