On our appliance 3600 not free space on storage, and not run deduplication cleanup procedure.

In folder (Appliance_Dedupe\history\segments) use 150Gb of space.

May be safety cleanup this folder (Appliance_Dedupe\history\segments) ?

      In appliance forum not answering :(

      Support please give me answer, very very need!!

  • The Deduplication Storage in Backup Exec (whether or not an appliance is in use) is a very large relational database and as such deleting any files from with the file system could break it.

    If you are running our of space the usually recommendation is identify some backup sets that can be expired(deleted) within the console and expire then and then use the information in http://www.veritas.com/docs/000007234 to retrieve some space.

    If this does not help then the next suggestion is log a formal support case.
