Ubuntu 20.04 mnanage / delete old zfs snapshots

[dbergst]

In Ubuntu 20.04 is there a mechanism (e.g., via zsys) to manage old snapshots that are no longer needed? I have observed that auto snapshots are taken whenever apt updates the system but have not seen what happens when there are too many stored snapshots, e.g,, low disk space.

zsys performs garbage collection after a period of time. see https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/zfs-f...og-posts/16355 for discussion on zsys, plus links to a set of blogs that describe how it works.
