Get rid snapshot totally

Hi all,

n3300> df -h

Filesystem total used avail capacity Mounted on

/vol/vol0/ 671GB 183GB 488GB 27% /vol/vol0/

/vol/vol0/.snapshot 0KB 2312KB 0KB ---% /vol/vol0/.snapshot

/vol/vol1/ 11GB 8190MB 3277MB 71% /vol/vol1/

/vol/vol1/.snapshot 2867MB 0MB 2867MB 0% /vol/vol1/.snapshot

I forgot.. I manage to remove the snapshot on vol0, but on vol1, I try vol options vol1 nosnap on, but the result is still like the above (2867MB taken by snapshot).

How do I achive like vol0? (no snapshot at all).

Thank you.

Hello.

It looks like there were already snapshots taken for vol1. They were probably the canned snapshots you get by default. You will simply need to remove the snapshots on vol1 to get this space back. This is easily accomplished in the FilerView app.

Good Luck!

Thanks, I remember now. It's snap reserve vol1 0

n3300> snap reserve vol1 0

n3300> snap reserve vol1

Volume vol1: current snapshot reserve is 0% or 0 k-bytes.

n3300> df -h
