DPM Server (2007) is stating the firestreamer tape library free tape threshold has been reached

The Firestreamer tape library states it’s low on space. How do I give the library more space?

What is the exact text of the message? If there is no space left on the underlying storage, you can do one or more of the following:
  • Mark old tapes as free in DPM so that the latter can reuse the tapes.
  • Unload and delete old tapes, then create new tapes on the same storage and load them.
  • Create new tapes on additional storage and load them.
