ADVM-10781

could not undo ACFS security or encryption for the file system mounted on path 'string' because of existing snapshots

Cause

An attempt to undo ACFS security or encryption for the indicated file system failed because there were existing snapshots (created by user or created as part of replication V2 being active) for the file system. ACFS security and encryption can only be undone for a file system with no snapshots. This message may be displayed before or after all files have been decrypted using the command 'acfsutil encr set -u'. In either case, the file system retains its encryption 'prepared' state and files can be encrypted without running 'acfsutil encr set' again.


Action

Remove all snapshots by executing 'acfsutil snap delete', and also check if replication V2 is active, terminate replication on the file system and retry.
