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)
snap sched vol0 0
Will stop the snap sched from creating snapshots. I prefer this since if you really want to create a snapshot, you can.

I prefer it too, but that's not a good argument for it.
You can create a snapshot with "snap create" at any time (or, for example, "dump" will create one if it needs to), whichever of
snap sched VOLNAME 0 vol options VOLNAME nosnap on
you have used. Both of them disable only *automatic* snapshots.
