<body><div>I have 4 Aventurine servers and one has a problem where there appear to be snapshots that are hanging around that should not be.</div><div><br /></div><div>I have been having a disk space problem and I noticed that in /vz/private/{VPS_ID} on there 3 OK servers there is just a root.hdd but on the one with problems there is the root.hdd as well as many other root.hdd (Snapshot_ID). Some of these other files are very large.</div><div><br /></div><div>When I run a prlctl snapshot-list (Snapshot_ID) on the servers without problems it shows no snapshots. But on the one with the problem it shows:</div><div><br /></div><div>PARENT_SNAPSHOT_ID SNAPSHOT_ID

</div><div><br /></div><div>and a new one seems to be added each night.</div><div><br /></div><div>I spoke with Chris at Virtbiz and he cautioned against just deleting the snapshots so I thought I would ask if anyone has seen anything like this or has any advise to properly remove the snapshots without causing problems.</div>
