How to reclaim space after removing virtual volume 3PAR?
Hello,
I have an Inserv F200 3PAR. Yesterday I deleted 2 virtual volumes of 3PAR. Before the deletion it had 410GB free and now continues to have 410GB. How I can refresh this information? I read about reclaim space in 3PAR, but do not find the way to do.
Thanks for your help.

Re: How to reclaim space after removing virtual volume 3PAR?
It depends on how large the virtual volumes were. Each CPG has a growth size. This lets the CPG keep some chunklets pre-reserved. Also, when volumes are deleted, it will retain some space in the CPG assuming the space will be reused. Try compacting your CPGs:
compactcpg -f -pat *
The following command will set up a job to run weekly (Sundays, 0000 hours):
createsched -no_alert "compactcpg -f -pat *" @weekly Compact_All_CPGs

Tahnks Sheldon Smith,
I'll try your solution. I had tried to compact the CPG from Inform, but "compact CPG..." option was disabled.

What was the command you used and what was the output?
What HP 3PAR OS version are you using?
Note if you are in a Unix shell, you'll need to quote that "*".

Re: How to reclaim space after removing virtual volume 3PAR?
Oh sorry,
I mean the "3PAR InForm managem.ent console". In it there is an option to compact CPG but is disabled. My 3PAR is InServ F200. I will try with cli console
I'll use the cli console as such you recommend me.
