DPM 2007: Expired recovery points not getting deleted completely

Question
-
Hi,
I have a DPM 2007 server running in my environment. It's being used to take the backup of the File servers. The DPM server has already been updated to SP1. The problem that I am having is I'm constantly running out of space on the recovery points volume. Though the recovery points are getting deleted fine according to the retention range that's been set and even after deleting them manually, i still don't see any change in the free space of the storage pool attached to the DPM server.
Please note that I have already applied the following patch:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;970867
Also, I am able to run pruneshadowcopies.ps1 without any errors (it doesn't return anything so i believe it is finishing properly)
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
P.S. sorry about double post

According to the description, the issue seems to be related to DPM. As we mainly focus on the General question about Windows Server 2008 system and here is not the best support resource for DPM, it is recommend you to get further support in the corresponding community so that you can get the most qualified pool of respondents. Thanks for your understanding.
For your convenience, I have list the related link as followed.
