Reclaiming free space there are no snapshots

[Guywithsomedata]

Hi there

Okay, I can't find anything here that actually helps with this issue. I have a 102 unit and when I delete files from the NAS via the browser interface or via os x finder the space is never freed up.  Is there a ssh terminal command that can purge this data completely? I have looked in the data/.purge folder but there is nothing there. I must have deleted at least 200gb off of a 3TB drive and it still says I have only 8GB of available space. Any ideas? Snapshots have never been enabled so I don't have any and I am running the most current firmware.  Thank you

So you are running 6.2.5?

Can you send me your logs (see the sending logs link in my sig)?

Thanks, sent

I can see heaps of snapshots that were not upgraded when you updated to 6.2.4. They would not be showing in the UI, but they are there.

Do you have a backup of your data?

[Guywithsomedata]

Weird, it isn’t anything i turned on as far as I know. No back ups as it is basically just media. Question: How would one know they needed to upgrade the snapshots if one never actually knew they were running? Are they on by default? I couldn’t see any via the web interface. Is this a bug?  Is there a solution?

[mdgm-ntgr]

They were on by default on older firmware and should have automatically been upgraded when upgrading to 6.2.x.

Any suggestions as to how to free up the deleted files? I am comfortable with the terminal if I know where to look

[mdgm-ntgr]

I have sent you a PM.

Hi mdgm,

I believe I am having the exact issue, as my interface shows a LARGE amount of snapshots but I cannot find them anywhere to delete. Can you send me the info on how to remove these hidden snapshots also?

Thanks

same here, I'd like to know how to get rid of them
