Releasing a hold
You can release holds by using the nbholdutil -delete command.
Note:
A backup image expires as per the expiry date when all the holds that include that backup image are released.
To release a hold
On a command prompt on the NetBackup master server, enter the nbholdutil -delete command with appropriate options and elements. For example:
nbholdutil.exe -delete -holdname legal_case1 -force -reason Legal_Case1 resolved
This command releases a hold that is called legal_case1. For more information about related command options, see the Veritas NetBackup Commands Reference Guide
The command nbholdutil -delete lets you release a hold.
