Ok, I did something stupid. I used my FreeNAS to temporarily store a block of movies. I needed to store them somewhere and my external 8TB drive isn't here yet from Amazon.
I didn't realize how many TB I was putting there and I loaded it up way more than I ever intended. I got the 91% full error message.
I am using CIFS share to access and from Windows deleted all those movie files.
Now I am wondering how that affects the snapshots. I like having snapshots of all my document and spreadsheet files, etc... but those movies are gone and I wonder if the FreeNAS is still storing them as snapshots?
How can I purge those snapshots without purging the ones that I want to keep?
Thanks,
Kirk
