How to Delete mutliple Snapshots at once or via command line ?

We have RN516.

Mostly it stays occupied and nearly full of space.

So, that I have to delete snapshots manually.

Currently near 60gb is occupied by snapshots only.

Is there any way to deleted or manage them in bulk?

With Chrome on Windows, I right click on share on the left pane and click "recover".  That brings up the snapshot list.  

 

Holding ctrl down as you click lets you choose multiple entries.  Or click the topmost, hold down shift, and then scroll down and click the one at the bottom.

 

Then right-click, and there is a delete option.

The web ui will let you select all the snapshots in a share, and delete them all at once. It is share-by-share though.

 

I'd like to be able to delete all snapshots older than date X from one place (which of course would also let you delete all snapshots).  I'd also like an automatic way to delete aging snapshots - the thinning done now is useful, but not enough.

 

Maybe post something in the idea exchang.?

Please describe the process. I am not able to find a way.
