NAS RN104 with "gone" Snapshot is still using space. Software realese is 6.10.10

As from the title and th picture, i still have the snapshot problem error.

I delete alot of snapshot and disabled the feature, but even using SSH, typing the command i saw in a couple of other post here, leave the situation unchanged...

# touch /.force_snapshots_upgrade
# systemctl restart readynasd

 

This is the result of a

# btrfs subvolume list -s /dat

command

I guess is the case of those snapshot not updated after OS update.

 

Of course i'm not na ssh expert and maybe i doing something wrong.
Can someone please help me?

 

Thanks.

    Did you want to delete all the snapshots?  

     

    It can take a while for the free space to be reclaimed.  Try running a balance from the volume settings wheel.

      Thnak You Stephen, i've already done it twice, but nothing changed.
      I guess it's the same situation of orphanaged snapshot coming from a software update.
      And it's strange that trying to use SSH Terminal seams like i just "talking to ghosts" as the commands i type, doesn't sort anykind of effects on the NAS.
