    Run this:

    /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/nbdelete -allvolumes -force 

    its a safe command. It just deletes the fragments that are already expired:

    From man pages:

    The nbdelete command removes all deleted fragments from  the
         disk  volumes  that  are  specified on the command line. The
         -allvolumes option removes the fragments  from  all  volumes
         that   contain   deleted   fragments. 

    After this, try to delete the disk pool.

hello, the final solution for me, after I restart the Appliance, I deleted the disk pool from the webui interface (storage >storage configuration>disk pools).
