DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2

In DPF environment, prune will not delete backup images from 
disk where the database partition expression $N was used in 
target directory. 
Entries from history file are getting deleted. 
 
This can be reproduced with the following steps: 
1. Set the following db cfg parameters: 
 Auto deletion of recovery objects    (AUTO_DEL_REC_OBJ) = ON 
 Number of database backups to retain   (NUM_DB_BACKUPS) = 1 
 Recovery history retention (days)     (REC_HIS_RETENTN) = 1 
 
2. Use database partition expression $N to backup 
$ db2 "backup db db1 on all dbpartitionnums to 
'/home/db2inst1/backup/NODE000 \$N'" 
 
Backup is successful and images are saved to 
'/home/db2inst1/backup/NODE0001, NODE0002, NODE0003 etc. 
 
$ db2 LIST HISTORY BACKUP all for db1 
 
                    List History File for db1 
 
Number of matching file entries = 1

3. doing another backup, this should delete the previous backup 
image based on database parameters set previously. 
In db2diag.log, the backup images deleted messages are logged, 
however the backup images are not removed from the disk.

The entries from history file are getting deleted correctly. 
 
If the backup command doesn't use $N in the target directory, 
then backup images are deleted correctly.
