Ghost paging space after Sysback ver 3 restoration

Question:

Env:    
  AIX 3250
  Sysback 3.1

Desc:   
   The customer recently restored from a Sysback full system backup,
   in the process moving some volumes to external disks and removing
   some paging spaces and increasing others.
   Now, when booting, they receive
   the following error regarding the paging space he removed:

0517-072 swapon: Cannot activate paging device /dev/\.
: A file or directory in the path name does not exist.

        The old paging is not on the system, confirmed with "lsps -a".

Action: 
    Every paging space that is set to be automatically swapped on at
    system boot is listed in /etc/swapspaces.  Removing the entry
    for that paging space from /etc/swapspaces will resolve the error.
