I am not sure if this is the right way for the product.
But this could be done today with a simple application, which simulates a backup and marks all TXN files are backed up.
Imagine HCL would implement this option as part of the product and a customer uses it without knowing what it does in detail. And will only figure out when they try to restore.
If this happens more often, you have a serious backup infrastructure problem!
But what you are asking for can be done with Domino 12.x backup with a translog enabled backup configuration. You just need to define a dummy action for translog backup and backup TXN files once (load backup -t).
This will mark all TXN files as backed up and Domino Translog will purge TXN files.
Those type of operations are at your own risk and not advisable!
But they could work as a last resort operation if you really know what you are doing.
