The following commands can be used to manipulate deleted NSS logical volumes:
Each command is wrapped with either the nssRequest or nssReply element and the deletedVolume element.
NSS logical volumes reside inside of NSS storage pools. When a logical volume is deleted, it is not immediately purged from the system. Instead, it goes into a deleted state, is renamed to an encoded name, and is assigned a time when it is permanently purged from the system. At any time before the deleted volume is automatically purged, it can be salvaged or manually purged.
NOTE:Do not confuse the deleted functionality of entire volumes with the salvage feature for files and directories.
