which is not surprising, when you think of it. A del vol does a lot of changes 
in the database, and if you don't itemcommit this means that all del vols are 
one huge transaction to the db that will very quickly fill up the db recovery 
log as well as possibly other tsm and db2 resources. I seem to recall doing a 
macro with del vols on TSM v5 and also completely trashing the tsm server 
because of the sheer size of that one single transaction.
