I already have a new volume with full backup, so now I want to purge
the old volume, then delete it and then delete the actual file
(750GB). Is that how it works?

purge volume=myoldnotusedvolume
then
delete volume=myoldnotusedvolume
then
take our the myoldnotusedvolume out of the configuration files or rm
myoldnotusedvolume ?

Correct?

Thanks,
Lucas
