ZFS Immutable/RMAN/snapshots

Hi all,

We setup a ZFS share with the immutable setting. We set the immutability expiry to a set number of days - 25 in this example.

On our linux host where this share is NFS mounted We ran across a problem where rman would report the files as removed, but they persisted on the filesystem. We can only delete these files with rm -f <filename>, no as file modifications are allowed.
Has anyone seen this? or better yet worked out a way for an rman script to delete the files?

What we've tried:

  1. Manually removing files outside of rman.
  2. scripting another job to try and determine only those files we want to delete.

Howdy, Stranger!
