A quick question about snapshots and replication. I am taking snapshots on an SSD-based TrueNAS box, which is then being pushed off to a much larger spinning rust-based TrueNAS, that is being used for snapshots for all of my production datasets as well as cold storage for no-long-in-use datasets that cannot be deleted. Since the production NAS in question is SSD based, it is significantly smaller than the spinning rust ones. So it is getting tight on space...So this is my question. If I were to delete some of the oldest snapshots, would that also auto-delete the replicated snapshots, or would they stay around for the full retention period?
I am hoping the latter is true, as mgmt is not comfortable with just "losing" those older snapshots, however I am not comfortable with the usage on the dataset sitting around 90% either.
Thanks.
