Unable to delete apps ([EBUSY] Failed to delete dataset: cannot destroy

I am on the latest Cobia release and am trying to reinstall NextCloud after having a bunch of issues. Unforatuntely, I am unable to delete it. My apps are installed on a dataset called Apps, that’s what apps/ix-applications is in the code below. I’ve tried restarting the server and that doesn’t seem to fix it. Any help would appreciated, thank you

middlewared.service_exception.CallError: [EBUSY] Failed to delete dataset: cannot destroy 'apps/ix-applications/releases/nextcloud/charts': dataset is busy
cannot destroy 'apps/ix-applications/releases/nextcloud/volumes/ix_volumes/ix-postgres_backups': dataset is busy

Try pressing this button, and then select the pool again after it finishes removing it.

OH MY GOOD LLAWD!!! THAT SOLVED IT. You have no clue what all I’ve tried

It’s unclear if his post solved this issue. Perhaps marking it as the solution might clear up some ambiguity?

Thanks, I had a similar issue and this solved the problem for me.

Cheers

But I don’t know, why datasets, that are not used by apps, can’t be deleted without unsetting the app-pool.

Thank you so much for this. I signed up for an account to this forum just to thank you. I tried so many times to delete a dataset and this was the real fix.

Glad this works. Why is it necessary? Had nothing currently utilizing the dataset.
