Hello all,

I have a DataDomain that is reaching 95% capacity, so I am looking for data that can be cleaned out QUICKLY. I have located some data that I was certain could go and cleared it, but there is other data that I am not sure about. For example, there are a lot of subfolders underneath the Avamar storage unit on the datadaomin that go back into April 2016. But, when I open one of those subfolders, there is data in there even older, back into 2015 (see pictures). There should be NO data on our datadomain older than 5 weeks. If its older than that, it clones to tape.

My concern is that this may be some sort of metadata in there for dedupe purposes, but I just dont know. These subfolders under the "cur" directory range from 40gb to 400gb, and there are over 1100 of them. 

Anyone know if this older data can safely be cleaned out?

Thanks all!
