As far as I understood the manual, the purge will just remove all data
(jobs, files) belonging to the volume while delete will completely
remove the volume itself from the catalog. After purge, you're able to
use the volume for the next backup. After delete, the volume is gone
like it does not exist any more.

HTH,
