    Hi Rafael, unfortunately there is no way that blocks can be manually deleted. I have had to configure block lifetime to force blocks to be deleted in my project.

Hello, Has there been any change enabling the deletion of the PBA entries? Are there any other options besides changing the block lifetime?

Hello Valentin! I'm afraid not. The only two things that you can do is configuring a very low block idle time or you can disable the VS that uses the specific LSN pool, delete all clients connections and manually remove de prefix from the LSN pool which is such a hassle.

 

I have been playing with v14.1.0 and nothing seems different from this.

 

Best of luck. Rafael
