<div class="PlainText">Hi,<br>
<br>
we have some really large snapshots left from a migration. Since our<br>
store is almost full now we have to delete them now.<br>
<br>
Some snapshots are around 1TB already.<br>
<br>
The last time we tried to delete a ~500GB snapshot the delete task<br>
blocked the whole diskstore's IO and the whole cluster and all hosts<br>
became unavailable.<br>
<br>
Is there a way to delete large snapshots in a "humane" way that will not<br>
block everything?<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Stefan<br>
