cannot take snapshots on some volumes

[nikles]

Some volumes create snapshots not issue, others cannot create one, get an error code 28003020001

What NAS do you have and what firmware is it running?

Also, how old are the volumes (about)?  

You are running flexraid, correct?

Hello nikles,

Have you tried deleting old snapshots?

Welcome to the community!

Regards,

[nikles]

It's a readynas ultra running 6.7.5. The volumes are only a month old or so as I recently wiped the volumes entirely and created new ones. It only has 2 drives so it's a raid 1, shows X-Raid type raid 1.

There are no old snapshots to delete on these shares.

If you use X-RAID, then you have one volume (singular), with multiple shares.  Shares and volumes are different, so it is important to use the right terms.

When you say you "wiped the volumes" do you mean that you

• Destroyed the data volume, created new shares and reloaded all the data?
• Didn't destroy the volume, but deleted the shares from the web ui, recreated them and reloaded the data?
• Didn't delete the shares, but deleted the files in the shares, and then reloaded them.?

One day last month my readynas no longer recognized it's volumes. So I created new volume and shares and restored the data from backups.

One volume, correct?  Or were you running flex-raid before?

That would be my first option?

Or perhaps a factory reset (which builds everything from scratch).

I'm not trying to be difficult, it is important to know exactly what you did.
