Disable NetApp FlexClone Snapshots

When you create a FlexClone, you will automatically enable scheduled snapshots.  These can  be disabled using the same command (snap) that you used to set them up.  The snap command comes with a sched option, which if you want to disable for a specific LUN you would follow up with the name of the LUN and then a ‘0’.  For example:

snap sched fvolclone 0

If you are using your NetApp for Xsan LUNs then the snapshots are pretty much useless anyway…
