Marking media for re-use

To manually mark a piece of media for re-use:
1
In the Navigation pane, click Manage Devices.
2
In the list of drive/slot, click the drive/slot in which the piece of media resides, and click Re-use.
3
In the confirmation dialog, click OK.
4
When a piece of media is manually marked for re-use, NetVault will retain its media label and group associations. To reuse such media, you must set the Reuse Media option on the Target tab to either Any or With Same Group Label as Target Media. NetVault will overwrite the existing data on the media when they are re-used.
 
* 
NOTE: The media re-use option does not work for the NetVault SmartDisk devices. The NetVault SmartDisk devices use a process called Garbage Collection which finds and removes the chunks that are no longer in use from the chunk store and reclaims the disk space.
