Jobs deleted before Secure Erase is turned on
•
Jobs for which deletion is incomplete when the PS-17 is manually powered off (you can verify deletion status in
Command WorkStation)
•
Jobs merged into other jobs that are not deleted
•
Jobs stored on systems other than the PS-17, including:
•
Jobs sent to another PS-17 (such as to balance the work loads)
•
Jobs archived to removable media or network drives
•
Jobs sent from client computers
•
Jobs sent through an FTP server
•
Jobs sent through an SMB connection
•
Portions of jobs written to the hard disk due to disk swapping and disk caching
•
Job Log entries, which are not deleted unless the administrator uses the
Clear Server
feature to delete the entire
Job Log
Configure Secure Erase
