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. [No quoting available.] -- Andy Hatcher ahatcher@netapp.com

Joe,
Please remember jsh is COMPLETELY UNSUPPORTED. If it crashes your filer, I'm not responsible and neither is Netapp :)
Having said that, you should try kill with other options. It's been a long time since I used this. Maybe you need to kill PID (i.e. 517).

Is there a switch I'm missing, like kill -9 <threadName>
By the way the filer is running the most current version of
ONTAP for
the model ( F520 ) and has been rebooted in the last 42 days which postdates the timestamp on the snapshots. It looks like the kill solution or boot from floppy into maintenance mode and deleting them are going to be the only workable solutions.

There is an unsupported java shell you can invoke and kill the ndmp sessions. Even though ndmpd says no active sessions, it
probably has
some snapshots locked.

Greetings, First time caller.
I have a 520 for which "snap list" returns several
snapshot_for_backup

automatically. I
cannot delete them manually either.
I have tried setting "snap sched vol0 0 0 0" turned "vol options
vol0
nosnap on" and was still unable to delete the snapshots.
Below is the output of snap list.
Any suggestions on how to get rid of the unwanted
snapshots would be
appreciated.

Joe,
Sounds like you should call Netapp support. If all else fails, schedule a reboot of the filer. If the reboot does not allow you to remove the snapshots, something else must be taking place.
