We created a separate management class for the DB backups and made the
versioning 1, 0  for existing and deleted versions...
We then have the DBA's imbed a delete backup for anything older than the
time span they wish to keep.... in the scripts they use to run the api
backups.

Subject: Expiring DB2 backups


Hi *SMers.

As you know, when you backup DB2 it stamps an unique id to its backup,
making it an active version forever, then you can't expire that backup.
Does anyone know how to expire this kind of backups?
Thanks in advance.
