You manually purge the deleted volume. For information, see Section 23.4, Viewing, Salvaging, or Purging Deleted NSS Volumes in a Pool.
During the purge delay time, the deleted volume is salvageable, but the space belonging to the deleted volume is not available to other volumes and. When the purging process begins, the volume is no longer salvageable.
If it is necessary, you can restore a deleted volume before it is purged. See Section 23.4, Viewing, Salvaging, or Purging Deleted NSS Volumes in a Pool.
