The answer is "yes". All files are contained in file spaces, so delete the
file spaces and there goes the files.

Did you know that you can rename a node on ADSM. You could rename ClientA
to ClientB on ADSM and save on network traffic on the initial full backup.

Subject:  Removal of filespaces and files from ADSM




In this given scenario does cleanup happen accordingly?

A client Node(client A)  is replaced with a new Client Node(client B) as a
result of a hardware upgrade.  (Client A's data is copied to
Client B)

     Client A is removed immediately from the Daily backup schedule.
     Client B is added immediately to the Daily backup schedule.

     After a given period of time Client A filespaces are deleted.

Will all Active and InActive files from Client A be removed from the ADSM
D/B at the time the filespaces are deleted?
