Thanks for the suggestions, but no, there are no pending restores nor is
the client accessing the system, other than when we fired up the delete.

Re: [ADSM-L] Delete Backup - strange message - files not deleted






Maybe a restartable restore is pending?? Issue Q RESTORE on the server to
see. Or maybe someone else was doing a restore at the same
time you were trying the delete?

Subject: Delete Backup - strange message - files not deleted

Just installed the latest client (5.3.0.12) on a Solaris system. The TSM
AIX server is at 5.2.3.5.

Trying to delete individual backups for this client.  Using the
web-gui/java interface.

Went through the menus (utilities --> delete backup data...).  Chose the
"Delete Inactive Objects" option and drilled down to the
appropriate file.

After selecting the file and clicking on the DELETE button, I get the
error:

ANS1395E  The destination filespace or drive letter is unavailable. The
following object was not processed:
Filespace:'filespace-name'

Explanation:  The system is trying to restore or retrieve to a destination
that cannot be reached. The specified filespace name or
drive letter is not valid, or does not exist, or you are specifying a
local share name that cannot be resolved.

Considering that this message is totally inappropriate/wrong (what restore
?), how do I figure out what is wrong ?

I searched IBM.COM and google for the ANS1395E with no luck.
