RN314 scheduled snapshots not working on some shares
Hi
I have had smart snapshots enabled for years on my 314. Recently the scheduled snapshots on my main Projects share stopped working. It seems that all of the old snapshots are gone (no harm done) and I can only create manual snapshots.
Snapshots on other shares seem to be still working as expected with “years” of protection.
Any ideas how to get this working again? Thanks.

- Hi
I have 6.7TB data, 4.3TB snapshots, 5.19TB free. Raid 5.You could try disabling/re-enabling snapshots on the share, and see if that helps. There might also be some useful clues in the log zip file, so you could look there around the time(s) the snapshots are created.
Another possible path is to move the data into a new share that has snapshots enabled, and then delete the old one (renaming the new one to match the original name).
