the following conventions:
■ Prefixed with Planning_
■ Followed by the five digit schedule number, for
example 00001_

Removing Capacity Planning schedules
Use the Storage Checkpoint Capacity Planning utility to remove Capacity Planning
schedules at any time. You do not need to wait until the expiration date that you
supplied when creating a schedule.
Before removing the schedules, the following conditions must be met:
■ The Storage Checkpoint Capacity Planning utility stores the
space-usage information it collects during the schedule duration
in the log file /etc/vx/vxdba/logs/planxxxxx.out (where
<xxxxx> is the schedule ID number). This space-usage information
remains available to you in the log file even after the schedule is
removed.
■ During the schedule-removal operation, you are asked if you want
to remove the Storage Checkpoints that were created by the Storage
Checkpoint Capacity Planning utility during the schedule duration.
