Just got an error "Snapshot on volume C was invalidated ...

I just received an error:

Snapshot on volume C was invalidated and has been removed due to reserve space being completely used

What snapshot is this? I have tons of diskspace left so it's a weird error to see.

Thanks.

Snapshots are used for "freezing" contents of shares during backups. During the initial setup of your NAS, you were asked what size snapshot to use (if any). Check Frontview > Volumes > Volume Settings > Snapshot to see the size:



In a nutshell, it likely means that you've added/changed more data than the snapshot can keep track of (and not really too much of a concern unless you're using snapshots when backing up your NAS).

Cool - thanks. It's doing a big fsck right now but I will disable the setting when it comes back up.

Thanks!
