Hi,
It turns out that you can just use the tdposync command to remove the backups 
of the rman database. You just give it the same connection information as if 
connecting to the catalog, give it the date range your interested in and delete 
the backups. But this does not mean that tdposync is doing anything smart, it 
will offer to delete any backup even if they are recorded in the control file, 
it does not even indicate that the database is not registered in the catalog. 
So when in this situation you just have to work out for yourself the date range 
of the backups to be removed from Tivoli ,that are no longer recorded in the 
control file (a simple query against the tsm backups table in dsmadmc) and make 
sure that you use that range when asked by tdposync.

Regards

Pete

>>I could try giving it the target database and see what happens. 
Yeah, just try it...if the query that TDPO is runing is not RMAN catalog 
specific (view) then maybe?

>>I'll update later.
Pleas do.

Good luck,
