Snapshot space allocation continues to grow.

HI

I have an MS SQL db server with SnapManger for SQL which I have som problem with. From time to time I get following alert from opretion manager " The volume is 85.44% full (using 59.8 GB of 70.0 GB)". I usually resize the volume,

but it is not sustainable in the long run. SnapManager is configured to save two snapshot copies. When I reszie the volume the LUN is still the same, how can I use the area between the LUN and the snapshot copies?

It looks like they are created by snapmirror and are no orphaned (probably due to a break and a resync or a dr test). Those can be deleted, because the first snapshot in the list belongs to snapmirror as well and this is the one, snapmirror needs for further updates.
