Many people replied to my question about turning off snapshots. I guess it comes down to it, which method not only turns off the snapshot, but also turns off the systems reserving of disk space. (I know if I manually set it I will be ok) but does the command
snap sched vol0 0 0 0 do it or does vol options <volume name> nosnap on
I just don't want to have turned off snapshots, but still have the filer reserving space for them (I know this sounds kooky but I don't know if the microkernel will automatically save the space reguardless.)

Hi,
From the filer type
snap sched vol0 0 0 0
Repeat for each volume.
This is permanent until the next snap sched is issued. It can also be place in the /etc/rc file on vol0.

I'm setting no snapshots to be running and my disk usage to 0% (The machine is used as a cache server only, and the data is not critical in any way shape or form.
Is there an alternative method to shutting off snapshots? (i.e a snapshot off command, or something like that)
