Tivoli Storage Manager for Macintosh Backup-Archive Client Installation and User's Guide

Deleting Restore/Retrieve Volumes

If your Tivoli Storage Manager administrator gives you backdelete and archivedelete authority, you can delete entire restore/retrieve volumes from storage. This deletes all the files, both backup versions and archive copies, that are associated with a particular volume. You can select the File menu> Connection Information item to see your permissions.

For example, if you delete the Macintosh HD restore/retrieve volume, you are deleting all associated backup versions and archive copies. The original files still exist on your hard disk. Consider this carefully before you delete a restore or retrieve volume. You cannot delete individual backup versions kept on the server.

If you decide you do not need a restore/retrieve volume, delete it by clicking on the Utilities menu> Delete Filespaces.

Note:
Restore and Retrieve volumes can also be referred to as file spaces.
