Which template datasets can be deleted in 9.10?

[n3mur1t0r]

Hello,

I'm currently running FreeNAS-9.10.2-U1 (86c7ef5) and I have some leftover template datasets from previous versions in my jails dataset. I suppose those with 9.3 in their name and the VirtualBox one can safely be deleted, but what about the standard one?

Thank you!

The only one I have is .warden-template-standard. Deleting templates is not so straightforward. You probably need to delete them first in the warden, and *THEN* blow away their datasets.

I've deleted template datasets without doing anything with warden and haven't noticed any consequences.
I think currently, I don't have any templates. FreeNAS will just download the relevant template as necessary.

Note that you may need to "zfs promote" your jail and plugin datasets and snapshots before being able to delete the template dataset. Be careful here, you don't want to accidentally delete your jails.
