Hello!
I don't think you can delete files from volume and it shouldn't be done
else you are in danger of losing data integrity of the whole volume.
Better consider your schedule - is it really necessary to do diffs on
hourly basis? What are your retention times? How long you must keep the
data?
Send your schedule, retention times and volume number and size, and
let's try work something out.
