To delete a device

Caution: Once a device is deleted, any backups stored on that device are no longer accessible. The space occupied on the system may not be immediately available after a backup is deleted. Before data is removed, any referenced deduplicated data is migrated to other devices before the delete operation can complete.

1        Select Settings > Storage and Retention > Backup Devices.

2        Select the desired device.

3        Click Delete Device.

Note: For replicating systems, you cannot delete a device that is associated to a source system. You must remove the association before the device can be deleted. Go to Replication > System Management, select the source, uncheck the Select Device if Replicating Source box, and click Confirm.
