if there are SnapSure snapshots associated with that file system, you have to delete them first.

Here is the checkpoint I think I need to delete, it appears to be in use by EUDCNFS_OLD and EUDCNFS:

fs_ckpt EUDCNFS_OLD  -list
id    ckpt_name                creation_time           inuse fullmark   total_savvol_used  ckpt_usage_on_savvol
Info 26306752329: The value of ckpt_usage_on_savvol for read-only checkpoints may not be consistent with the total_savvol_used.

id    wckpt_name               inuse fullmark total_savvol_used  base  ckpt_usage_on_savvol

--------------------

fs_ckpt EUDCNFS  -list
id    ckpt_name                creation_time           inuse fullmark   total_savvol_used  ckpt_usage_on_savvol
Info 26306752329: The value of ckpt_usage_on_savvol for read-only checkpoints may not be consistent with the total_savvol_used.

id    wckpt_name               inuse fullmark total_savvol_used  base  ckpt_usage_on_savvol

I'm an ADMIN on the NAS so permissions shouldn't be an issue.

Hi,

Have you the right permits to delete thid file ?

Is there a command from the CLI I can list the checkpoints and then a command to delete? I'm still pretty green when it comes to managing the Celerra from the CLI. Former NetApp admin

The delete option of those checkpoints is grayed out in the GUI.

try to delete a checkpoint and then look in server_log server_2 (where server_2 is your datamover) ..anything interesting in the log around the time you try to delete ?

I have some checkpoints that are connected to this filesystem but I don't appear to be able to delete those either.

Hello,

If you are using Celerra Replicator for DR the checkpoint you are trying to delete maybe associated with file system that is being replicated to another site. You will have to stop replication on the file system you are trying to delete the checkpoint on.You can check out knowledge link solution id emc244707 for more information if this is the case. You may not have the same scenario mentioned in the solution but the same problem may be preventing you from deleting the checkpoint and in turn the file system (not to mention deleteing the replication session as well which will also need to be done).

This issue was resolved over Chat session

There was a replication checkpoint running for the file system which was deleted via CLI then "delete" option was highlighted in the GUI
