Identifying deleted objects/files
Author Message
Post Identifying deleted objects/files 
We are going to start billing folks for TSM resources usage/occupancy.

One issue that came up was how to identify those node objects/files that
are marked as DELETED and thus remain in inventory due to the RETONLY
duration of the management class. If we are to start billing for
occupancy, we would need to be able to identify how much is being held
because of RETONLY, especially since some managementclasses have this
coded for 5-years (we have been arguing to lower this value, with much
resistance, so we want to show them how much it is costing).

Is there a way/query to do this?

Such files are marked Inactive (not Deleted), and can be seen in scans
of the Backups and Archives tables (STATE='INACTIVE_VERSION') - which
is expensive, and can't report actual client file sizes.

One time when we wanted to find out what a change to RETONLY would
accomplish, I restored
a TSM db to a test server, changed the policy, ran expiration, then checked
the occupancy. I don't
know if this was right, but it provided some numbers to play with.
