Backup Exec Folder Size

I just started getting SRV warnings that disk space is running low on my Win2k Backup Exec media server. While attempting to identify possible causes on the affected drive (C:), I noticed the Program Files\Veritas\Backup Exec folder is 5.1 GB. I'm using Backup Exec 10.0 revision 5484.

Two subfolders in particular are very large:
Veritas\Backup Exec\NT\Catalogs 2.7 GB
Veritas\Backup Exec\NT\Databackup\Catalogs 1.2 GB

The Backup Exec folder does not seem to be growing rapidly and there is still enough drive space left to not be a critical issue. Can anyone tell me if it is normal for this folder to be so large, and can I do any pruning to free some space?

Thanks
