Changing configuration characteristics to manage space

Options for managing space on the cluster include

•

Changing snapshot retention—retaining fewer snapshots requires less space

•

Changing schedules to snapshot a volume—taking snapshots less frequently requires less
space

•

Deleting volumes or moving them to a different cluster

NOTE:

Deleting files on a file system does not free up space on the SAN volume. For more

information, see

“Block systems and file systems” (page 152)

. For file-level capacity management,

use application or file system-level tools.
