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.- StephenBJan 21, 2025Guru - Experienced User

What firmware are you running? The command you are using was only for snapshots from 6.1.x firmware, so not relevant for anything current.
Post 2 here gives the command to delete a specific snapshot from ssh:
You could also
- back up all the files
- do a factory reset
- rebuild the NAS
- restore the files from the backup
