Hello all, i have some snapshots took 2 months ago by the system itself.
I want to get rid of them, but i can’t delete them cause Truenas says they have dependent clones.
i’m assuming they were taken when migrating from core to scale…
how to do?
Thanks
Yes, the iX-applications dataset was cloned to provide a safe migration from dragonfish to electric eel… I assume that was the path you took.
We’'ll be deleting it by fangtooth… anything earlier is possible, but is not documented and has risk for downgrades.
i tried this solution and seems to work:
zfs promote SSD/ix-apps/app_mounts/syncthing/config
zfs destroy SSD/ix-apps/app_mounts/syncthing/config
also with app running, so seems to be safe.
tried to stop/start the app and nothing gone wrong.
i think i will do it for all snapshots
I have just upgraded to fangtooth and i’m still unable to delete old snapshots and get this same message. I have migrated all of my apps, is there any update on this?
I don’t know if other people have the same issue???
These are my snapshots that I cant delete.
Some of those apps I don’t even use anymore or have installed as apps
What do you think?
Do you still have your ix-applications
dataset (not ix-apps
) or have you already deleted it?
I do still have my ix-applications dataset yes. I dont have an ix-apps dataset though? I am using custom host path now though for all apps
Ahh yes i can see thta in FTP now.
So if I have migrated all of my apps, I am okay to delete the ix-application dataset now?
Yes and if it does that successfully, it should also clear the dependent clones
