Deleting a retention set
You can delete a retention set if you are no longer required to keep its data.

When you delete a retention set, the server inventory is updated and the backup data objects are no longer protected as part of that retention set. During expiration processing, the data objects are deleted unless they are still retained by a different retention set. For in-place retention sets, data objects are also not deleted if they are protected by policy set specifications.
