Andy,
I killed the threads but there are two other processes listed relating
to ndmp:
ndmpdclassloader
ndmpdserver
Should those be deleted also?
After deleting the threads I was still unable to delete the snapshots.
Thanks,
Joe Ropar

It's:
kill -9 <threadname>
I think you'll also have problems if the thread name has a space in it.
