Deleting a pool

You can delete only custom pools. Predefined tape pools (Unrecognized tapes, Imported tapes, Free tapes, and Acronis) cannot be deleted.

Note  After a pool is deleted, do not forget to edit backup plans that have the pool as the backup location. Otherwise, these backup plans will fail.

To delete a pool:

  1. Click Settings > Tape management.
  2. Select the machine or the storage node to which your tape device is attached, and then click Tape pools under this machine.
  3. Select the required pool and click Delete.
  4. Select the pool to which the tapes of the pool being deleted will be moved after the deletion.
  5. Click OK to delete the pool.
