How can I delete invisible snapshots?
Hello there,
Model ReadyNas102 v6.80 1*3To
My disk shows that it's full : Data 2.00To Snapshots 742.92Gb Freespace 723mb
But I deleted and desactivated all the snapshots, when I searh through the shares there isn't any snapshot....
Is there a way to delete these fantom snapshots without formating the disk? I don't have a second disk to save my datas on :/
Thank you !
Hello again,
I decided to learn a bit about ssh so I logged on the nas via ssh, and did the command to force upgrade the snapshots to v6.80.
Then it made the snapshots to appear again, then I deleted them and redid a balance.
Snapshot place is now completely free =)
I am happy, issue solved =)

Hello,
already did it, and it didn't liberate a single bit :o
I even lost the few remaining place I had xD
Snapshots : 743gb ....
But no snapshot is to be found anywhere :/
Hello JoeJinis,
It does appear performing Volume Balance did not made a difference. Next option would be contact support since the concern may require assistance from the engineers and/or higher tier who can remote in to the NAS and fix this from the backend.
