Nancy I've used the unsupported DELETE OBJECT and would endorse the statement Richard makes in his Quick Facts - namely that it does not update all the necessary tables to fully remove the object from the TSM server. When I subsequently ran an AUDITDB on the database, inconsistencies were flagged up for that OBJECT_ID.
I was using it to delete TDP for Oracle backups that the RMAN catalogue had 'forgotten' about, but with a file system client, I would recommend following the advice in IBM technote # 1166278.
