RE: Best order to delete multiple snapshots?

I hope to be corrected if im wrong..but unless there is folding between snapshots, it shouldn't matter.

I am wondering what is the best order to delete multiple snapshots - oldest first or newest first?

I have assumed that deleting the oldest first will result in less copying of blocks between snapshots, but am wondering if this assumption is correct?

My specific platform is a FAS960 running DataOnTAP 6.5.3P3 but I'm hoping that the answer to this isn't version specific!

TIA, Jeremy
