This model has FW 6.6.1, 4x3tb, XRaid. Everything shows green on the performance page. The only other thread the search came up with doesn't have an answer, so I'm starting a new discussion. ...

I suppose my next step is to delete the SQL share and create a new one, but I wanted to see if anyone had any ideas before I had to modify all our SQL backup jobs.
You could rename the existing SQL share, and then create a new one. That would simplify the backup job management (though you would need enough space).
Are the backup jobs running on the failing NAS? If not, are they staggered, or are they all trying to update the share at the same time?

I didn't think about renaming... since it seems to be constantly deleting snapshots for a directory where snapshots shouldn't exist, I figgured there was something wonky with the metadata, and I'm not sure renaming would do anything.
All of the backups are staggared so for the most part they shouldn't be hitting at the same time, but of course sometimes a backup will run long if we've just updated one of our primary databases.
I decided the first thing I'd do is change the snapshot from "Smart"/"Never" to "Custom"/"Retain 1", and I set the snapshot schedule for early morning (it's been dying late at night). If it starts dying in the morning, or hopefully not at all, I'll know it's definately a bug with the snapshots.
Thanks for the reply.

Shares are BTRFS subvolumes, and snapshots are controlled for each subvolume. So a fresh one might not have the problem.
