Found the answer : - It's a temperory snapshot, created during SnapVault (XDP) transfer to destination where deduplication is enabled. This snapshot is invalid, ensure the snapshot a valid normal name without alpha-numeric in it, and it should say application dependency snapmirror[base] to be of any use.
