FreeNAS 11 can't delete a dataset

[dirkme]

Hi there,

I have a dataset called cloud under my ZFS volume trust I used it for OwnCloud and NextCloud. There is no more share, use from any jail or snapshots of this dataset and for whatsoever, i just can't delete that dataset.

Any help, please ;-)

What is the error that appears when attempting to destroying the dataset?

It goes thru like it would erase it, but when it is done, the dataset is still there. No error message

That's odd!
After destroying the dataset,
is it still visible from the FreeNAS gui,
or from a client on the network?

First thing I would recommend (if this machine is not a
production server) is a re-boot. Also I might try and clear
the browser cache.

I will be home soon and try your recommendation s.

If you are sure you've done the right way (and I think you are). Open a bug ticket. Also if the worse comes to worse you can do it from the shell. The only thing is that the db might keep it, as the middleware db won't update. So let's wait for some one to provide more info on this. The commands are the same as in FreeBSD, so google zfs destroy for more info.

OK, will wait and see, I made sure there is no connection to that dataset anymore but it doesn't go away ;-)

Update, after a few reboots and tries, I was now able to get this dataset removed.

Thanks all of you for your help.

Sometimes it's the client hanging on too...
