[Q] How to disable snapshot

I use ReadyNAS Pro Pioneer Edition (RAIDiator 4.2.19).

I changed 2TB HDDs to 3TB HDDs. After end of resync, a message was displayed.

> Though there is a space to extend a volume, expansion process can't be executed because there are active snapshots.
> Please reboot after disabling snapshots or reinsert drives and expand.
(sorry, above message is my poor translation from Japanese message)

But I can't find snapshot tab in web interface.
Please tell me how to disable snapshot.

Regards.

  • In my environment, there is no Snapshot tab unde Volumes > Volume Setting.
    More properly, I can see a flash of Snapshot tab when I click Volume Setting, and soon the tab disappears.
    Is that because of Pioneer Edition ?
  • Sorry - I didn't realise that Pioneers didn't have snapshots.
    After a quick search I found the following thread:

    I think there is a solution that worked for some but otherwise I think you're headed toward a support ticket.
