16384000 bytes total (9360836 bytes free)
Deleting Files from Flash Memory
When you delete a file from Flash memory, the system marks the file as deleted, allowing you to later recover a deleted file using the undelete command. Erased files cannot be recovered. To permanently erase the configuration file, enter the squeeze command.
The squeeze command permanently removes files marked for deletion and pushes all the other undeleted files together to eliminate spaces between them. To prevent data loss due to sudden power loss, the squeezed data is temporarily saved to another location in Flash memory. The squeeze command keeps a log of the functions performed so that if a power failure occurs, the system continues the process when the power resumes.
Caution When deleting files from memory, be careful not to delete all the system images. If you delete all existing system images, you can no longer download new images.
