Long story, but could be a couple things.

 

Do you show any luns that are not in an igroup and is apart of that vol?  Also, if your server does verifies and was rebooted during a verify,  will most likely be a mounted lun that was never properly removed.

 

Is the cloning you doing for exchange, or MS SQL?

Subject: Cleaning up snapshots while leaving flexclones

 

Hi,
We routinely cleanup snapshots via filerview and recently started using flexclones, which show up in the snapshot view as “busy,vclone – Busy”
For this volume there are similarly named snapshots listed as “normal”
We’d like to delete those to reclaim the space, but want confirmation they are not going to affect the mounted vclone(flexclone) volumes.
Basically I am asking will filerview prevent me from deleting these snapshots if they are associated with an actively mounted flexclone?
(



Thanks
