ReadyDR setup

Hi vandermerwe,
Thanks. Please keep us posted.

I realise this is an oldish thread, however I have encountered the dreaded "Snapshot deletion failure" error.
I have had to recreate my backup NAS volume and hence recreate all the ReadyDR backups. 4 out of 5 of these ran correctly, however the 5th online backed up 32 of 52 snapshots, no error messages. I deleted the job as running it again made no difference. When I deleted the job, the readydR share remained so I tried to delete this - Error message saying Unable to delete share because of snapshot deletion failure.
This is exactly what I encountered the first time I set this up and I had hope this problem had been fixed.
I really don't want to have to factory default the unit (this is what I had to do a few months ago to fix this) just because of this snapshot deletion failure.
Does anyone have a technique for identifying and eleting these seemingly rogue snapshots?
