I think that you can convert some important checkpoints into snapshots, firstly. It can be more safely. As I can understand, rmcp doesn't delete snapshots by default. Moreover, you can delete some very old checkpoints and try to use file system, firstly. Checkpoints duplicate information usually and deleting of some old checkpoints don't be a dangerous action. Anyway, be careful, if you have some hesitations then it make sense to backup important information before any activity.
