How to delete snapshot that has space in name?

taniaeortega

Thank you in advance for whom assist me with this challenge.

We have snapshots in SnapVault environment created by SnapCenter VmWare plugin which were given Resource name "Tier 0".   I need to delete all of those with the space in between the letter "r" and number zero (0). I didn't venture using Tier* because of the concern that it will also delete all newer snapshots which we have created that doesn't have the space in it.

Any suggestions?

2 possible ways:

1. via GUI

2. via CLI (simply created it and deleted in a lab)

ontap93a::> vol snapshot create -vserver test_serg -volume data_serg -snapshot "tier 0"

ontap93a::> vol snapshot show -vserver test_serg -volume data_serg

Warning: Deleting a Snapshot copy permanently removes any data that is stored only in that Snapshot copy. Are you sure you want to delete Snapshot copy "tier 0" for volume "data_serg" in Vserver "test_serg" ?
