What we do when space gets tight on our DataDomain is to identify Images that are soon to expire within NBU. Go ahead and pre-expire them, then afterwards kick off a clean.
In our case, we use VTL and pre-expire the volumes that are soon to expire (we have 3 month retention), go out to the DD and vtl export/vtl tape del; followed by a vtl tape add/vtl import.

One of our backend disk is at 100% and we want to get some space back. However we do not know how can we get it faster other than running the clean process of DD, even after which we will be getting 265 GB space. Any help would be appreciated.
