The Delete Media(s) & Purge function allows the user to remove unused media
from the media server while deleting the media from the database.
There are four options available when using this function:
1. Delete database references: removes entries from the database only
2. Delete database references AND media files from online (e.g. XT[2]) or
nearline (e.g. SAN, XStore) storage: removes entries from the database and
from the media server
3. Delete database references AND media files from offline/deep archive (e.g.
Tape library, ftp archive): removes entries from the database and from the
archive storage
4. Delete database references AND media files from online/nearline storage AND
media files from offline/deep archive: removes entries from the database, from
the media server and from the archive storage
The media will be removed only if they are not used in other edits or in other
playlists (either the media itself or through attached virtual media or virtual clips).
Additionally, all associated material such as virtual media and virtual clips that are
used in the edit(s) or playlist(s) selected for deletion will be removed from the
database.

Cleaner’ on page 124.
