Thanks Everyone!
I had no idea that that parameter existed although I can see why it is
undocumented.

Re: Delete the last DBSnapshot
It is an undocumented option. I'm not sure which version of TSM it was
first available.
Look at the "DELete VOLHistory " here:

Re: [ADSM-L] Delete the last DBSnapshot
Hi Shawn,
Does the force=yes only apply to TSM version 5.5? I don't see that option
available for the delete volhist command. This TSM server is only at
5.3.5.2, but will be upgraded shortly to a supported version. Just let me
know either way and thanks for the syntax!!!

[ADSM-L] Delete the last DBSnapshot
Hi Everyone,
I used to use database snapshots going to a file device class. I no
longer need/want to run database snapshots, but I cannot seem to delete
the last one. I also still run a database backup to tape, which I want to
keep. Does anyone know how I can get rid of this database snapshot so
that I can delete the file system from the TSM server?
Thanks in advance!
