Cleaning Up Orphaned Volume Replay Histories

Volume histories can become orphaned when the process of deleting a volume is
interrupted. When a volume history becomes orphaned, the disk space it consumes is not
released and cannot be used by other volumes. Eliminate orphaned histories to free up disk
space for other volumes.

To eliminate orphaned Replay histories

1 From the Storage Management menu, choose Volume > Clean Up Orphaned Replay

Histories. The Clean Up Orphaned Replay Histories window appears with a list of
orphaned Replays. The System Manager asks you if you want to delete the orphaned
Volume Histories.

2 Click OK. The orphaned volume histories are deleted.
