Setting Options for Deletion

2. Links for assets that are not reserved or referenced by other assets are deleted from the
database.
3. After the last link for an asset is deleted, database assets are deleted unless they reference
online media.
The following illustration shows the completed deletion.
The last part of the process is the part that takes the longest time and places the heaviest load on
the Interplay Engine. In addition, this part of the process does not provide immediate feedback,
as opposed to media deletion (you can see the files deleted from shared storage) and link deletion
(you can see links are deleted from the Access folder structure).The Interplay Access Delete
dialog box remains open until the entire deletion process is complete, which results in wasted
time for a media manager.

Some files associated with database assets, such as AAF files and headframes, are deleted after
the next complete backup.
Changes in Interplay v2.4 (Asynchronous Deletion)
In Interplay v2.4 and later, the last part of the deletion process (database asset deletion) is
disassociated from the first two parts of the deletion process. When the last link to a database
asset is deleted, the Interplay Engine moves the last link for the database object to the Orphan
Clips folder. This link points to the database asset.
