The Backup Exec sad me 'Low disk space'.
I saw the media-s, and I found a lot of rewritable media on 'full' disk.
My Question:
Why Backup Exec not reuse rewritable media?
How can I change Media to rewriteble?
How can I delete Media with stored (retired) data? Because if I delete data manualy, then BE not refresh inventory.
Thanks for help

This is how DLM works http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH201826 with BE 2012
You can check under Configuration Settings> Backup exec Settings > Storage and check what the overwrite setting is.BE never overwrites protected data. We can also check the retention period of your disk based backups if this does not help.

Thanks, I think, I found the problem: The Media Set retention time was 24days instead of 24hours. But I don't know, why now filled the space, because I set this Media Set a year ago.

I associated the medias with Retired Media, because just this way I can delete. And then I deleted it.
But the Device stay full...

I did it, but Backup Exec not deleted the files from NAS, deleted only media assign. Therefore I deleted it from NAS too.
Bet the problem still persist.
When I want to scan device it changes to offline. But I can reach it from browser.
