Why does the NAS contain a snapshot with the name "snapsync.XXXX" that cannot be deleted?

Last modified date: 2019-07-01

SnapSync uses snapshots to transfer data between NAS devices. The first time that a SnapSync jobs runs, SnapSync creates a snapshot on the source NAS, and then synchronizes it to the destination NAS. On each subsequent run of the job, SnapSync deletes the existing snapshot and creates a new one. To delete a SnapSync snapshot, you must delete the SnapSync job that created it. You will then be able to manually delete the snapshot.
