DB2 - Problem description

Problem IC86418 Status: Closed

DB2 9.7FP6 "DB2ADUTL DELETE OLDER THAN N DAYS WITHOUT
PROMPTING"DELETES ARCHIVE LOGS BOTH OLDER AND NEWER THAN N DAYS

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2
Problem description:
"db2adutl delete older than n days without prompting" 
 
This syntax used in DB2 Version 9.5 deleted all backup images 
older than 'n' days (full, loadcopy, tablespace), but left 
archive 
logs in TSM. After upgrading to DB2 Version 9.7fp6, the same 
syntax deletes also all archive logs both older and newer than 
n days. 
 
'without prompting' clause just confirms what was returned by 
'db2adutl delete ...', transaction logs are being returned (even 
newer that 'n' days). 
 
According to the documentation, this syntax should not delete 
archive logs. Only when 'logs' clause is specified are logs 
deleted. 
 
The problem started after upgrade to DB2 v9.7 FP6.
