    Netbackup should reclaim the space within 12 hours. Else you can manual run the clean-up process

    1. Check if another queue processing is running:
      crcontrol --processqueueinfo
    2. Repeat step 1 until pending and busy status show "no" as the result.
      Remark: one queue processing can take between a few minutes up to about a day. Progress can be seen in thestoraged.log.
    3. Start the CR queue processing:
      crcontrol --processqueue
    4. Check if the queue processing is finished by using the following command:
      crcontrol --processqueueinfo
    5. Repeat step 4 until pending and busy status show "no" as the result.
