We are also on 6.2.5 and had this happen once.
I agree, the archive log overflow area does not seem to work as advertised.
I finally just deleted the archive logs in the overflow area after several
backup.

Subject: Archive Log Overflow never empties
We have four instances of TSM Server 6.2.5 on AIX, which basically
behave pretty well. But on all of them, we occasionally get a little bit
of data overflowing into the Archive Overflow Log filesystem. I don't
know why, because as far as I can tell the Archive Log filesystem has
never been allowed to fill up. But anyway, it never empties out. Full
database backups reliably free space in the Archive Log filesystem, but
the Archive Overflow Log just gradually fills up. One of them is up to
20%, over a period of a year. I saw somewhere that it takes two full
database backups, but there have been many dozens of full backups.
Any idea how I can get the Archive Overflow Log to empty out?
