EV - removing 'stale' FSA Volumes & Servers

I need a solution

I have an EV config currently at 9.0.4, which I will shortly be upgrading to 10.0.4 - and prior to the upgrade I am cleaning up some redundant entries in terms of FSA entries.

I have two fileservers defined, each with a single volume.  These are long gone at this point (from the environment) and were just used some years ago for testing.

I cannot delete either the volumes or the file servers as they no longer exist, and an error is returned as follows when I try to delete the volumes:

enterprise vault failed to delete archiving volume " from the directory

I see a post that says an alternative to having the file servers available for this task is to 'contact symantec to remove DB entires in SQL'.  Do we know what needs removing ?  The only entries I see are in the EnterpriseVaultDirectory database - in the dbo.fileserverentry and dbo.fileservervolumeentry tables.  Asuming a backup first of course, is it safe to edit out these entries from the tables ?  There is also an entry in the dbo.filesystemarchivingtask table but once the volumes and file servers are removed I should be able to remove that from the VAC.

Anyone done this ?
