Freeing up Storage Space Storage space can be freed up by erasing the data on or destroying virtual media that is no longer used, such as: • Cartridges that are no longer used by a backup application • Cartridges that have been moved to the Firesafe that are no longer needed Use the backup application to erase data on virtual media that is no longer used. Destroy virtual media that is no longer needed using Command View VLS. See "Destroying Cartridges" (page 107). NOTE: Reducing the size of the cartridges in a virtual library will not free up disk space. Storage space is dynamically assigned by the VLS as it is used. It is not reserved. Restarting VLS Device Emulations Restart VLS device emulations: • If the VLS locks up • After destroying a virtual device (library or tape drive) on the VLS and doing so leaves a gap in the virtual device LUN numbering on an Fibre Channel host port Freeing up Storage Space 109
