Hi Everyone,
I've been asking around in various forums regarding this issue but as of yet have no solution:
- SMSQL is not deleting snaps of the SnapInfo LUN that it takes when performing transaction log backups.
I am running hourly transaction log backups + 1 daily = 24 snapshots per day.
Because the snapshots of the snapinfo LUN are not getting cleared off my filer I always hit the 255 limit or my vol fills up & then backups fail.
The below option in SMSQL doesn't seem to work - even when I untick the "create snapshot of SnapIndo drive" it still creates a snapshot after every hourly backup:
Finally I have tried the following variations on my SQL commands:
-retainSnapofSnapInfoDays 5 (doesn't work).
-rtsifsnadays 5 (short version. Also doesnt work).
-rtsifsnap 125 (forget dates, simply keep only 125 snapshots of the LUN. This is also ignored.)
