Subject: Problem deleting filespace on TSM 5.2.x
 
 
 
Hello All, 
 
        I have a probleme with deleting a Windows filespace for a particular 
node I want to remove.  When I run DELETE FILESPACE on it it finishes without 
errors, but the filespace itself is not deleted. 
 
20-09-2005 08:45:04   ANR0984I Process 106 for DELETE FILESPACE started in the 
FOREGROUND at 08:45:04. (SESSION: 2938, PROCESS: 106)    
20-09-2005 08:45:04   ANR0800I DELETE FILESPACE flush (fsId=2) for node MAIL 
started as process 106. (SESSION: 2938, PROCESS: 106)    
20-09-2005 08:45:04   ANR0802I DELETE FILESPACE flush (fsId=2) (backup/archive 
data) for node MAIL started. (SESSION: 2938, PROCESS:   106)                    
                                 
20-09-2005 08:45:04   ANR0806I DELETE FILESPACE flush (fsId=2) complete for 
node MAIL: 0 objects deleted. (SESSION: 2938, PROCESS: 106)   
20-09-2005 08:45:04   ANR0985I Process 106 for DELETE FILESPACE running in the 
FOREGROUND completed with completion state SUCCESS at  08:45:04. (SESSION: 
2938, PROCESS: 106)         
 
I have found this APAR on the TSM site which mentions that the local fix is to 
manually delete the invalid entry in the TSM DB...  How does one go about doing 
that ? 
 
IC39957: DELETE FILESPACE RETURNS SUCCESS BUT FILESPACE STILL EXISTS. 
 
 
 
 
APAR status
Closed as program error.
 
Error description 
A customer may be unable to remove a filespace from the
ITSM Server with the delete filespace command. The
delete filespace will complete successfully but the
filespace will still exist. The following messages are
an example of the successful return.
.
ANR0806I DELETE FILESPACE * (fsId=XX) complete for node
                     TESTFS: X objects deleted.
ANR0985I Process X for DELETE FILESPACE running in the
                     BACKGROUND completed with completion
                     state SUCCESS at XX:XX:XX.
.
A subsequent 'Q fi <filespace name>' will reveal that the
filespace was not removed.
.
The delete filespace should not end with a completion
state of success if the filespace cannot be removed
because of a referential integrity issue. The intent
of this APAR is to change the completion message to
a failure and produce a diagnostic message indicating
why the filespace could not be removed.
.
Platforms affected: All ITSM Servers running 4.2,
                   5.1 or 5.2
.
Customer/L2 Diagnostics
The problem can be verified by enabling the IMFS
trace class. The following trace point will show which
table entry is still tied to the filespace:
.
imfsdel.c [2727]: nodeId=XXX, fsId=X is referenced in "table
name"
.
Initial Impact: Low
.
Additional Keywords: IMFS FSID REM NODE ANR9999D
                    REMOVE REF INVALID DELETE
                    FILESPACE DIAG
 
Local fix 
Invalid ITSM DB entry will have to be manually removed
to delete the filespace.

****************************************************************
Incorrect result message was issued for DELETE FILESPACE
operation.  Also, no message was issued indicating that the
filespace being deleted is still referenced by an inventory
database entry.
 
Problem conclusion 
IBM Tivoli Storage Manager Server is modified to issue a
failure result message if the filespace being deleted is
referenced by any inventory database entry. In addition,
a diagnostic message will be issued to indicate the reason
for the failure.
 
Temporary fix
