Snapshot use place on RN104 but no snapshot in timeline

I have a RN104 with 6.4.1 firmware. It shows 2.04 Tb of data and 565 Gb of snapshots but there is no snapshots in the shares, I think they began invisible after upgrading the firmware. I saw some posts where you say that some snapshots were not upgraded during the update of the firmware. Anyone can tell me how to upgrade the snapshots  and finally see them on the timeline?

    # touch /.force_snapshots_upgrade
    # systemctl restart readynasd

        If you delete some of the snapshots once you've got the volume usage down to say about 80% you should then run a balance.
