Scheduled Empty Trash
- NOTE: By default, the Trash feature is enabled on a DS-System. You can configure this option (ON / OFF) in the DS-System Advanced Configuration screen with the 'TrashSwitch' parameter. (See "DS-System Advanced Configuration".)
You can schedule several Empty Trash Tasks on the DS-System. Each task will perform one pass through each backup set on the DS-System.
For more information about Emptying Trash see:
1. The Empty Trash option tab allows you to select the type of scan to perform. It appears in a Wizard if you are adding, or a Dialog Screen if you are editing.
- F1 Help: See "Schedule - Options (Empty Trash)".
2. In the Empty Trash Options section:
- Select how old the deleted data must be in order to qualify for delete.
- Each Storage Location requires one Empty Trash process. You can change the number of the processes that run concurrently.
- You can change the number of additional threads used by each Empty Trash process, if required.
- Note: A scheduled Empty Trash task runs on all of the DS-System's Extensible Storage Locations.
