System: HP microserver 54L, 8gb RAM, 2x3TB HDD as a mirror, 8GB USB boot, 1x64gb SSD (ada2), FreeNas 9.3 stable
I am running a VM of Windows 7 off the single ZFS SSD volume for speed (sacrificing security)
I am running ZFS snapshots on the volume and wish to replicate this to my main 3TB mirrored pool locally.
I run snapshots of the SSD every day with a 2 week expiry, and every 2 weeks with a 2 month expiry.
The initial replication to my main pool works fine unit a few days in I get an email EVERY MINUTE with
1) Does FreeNas really need to email me every minute about this (deleting 150 identical emails in the morning is not fun!)
2) I presume I just need to stop running additional snapshots of the replicated version..... however I would like to keep the additional snapshots going if possible as I can fit much more on my 3tb pool therefore keeping very old versions. Is this possible?
Thanks for any pointers

Hello,
The replication failed for the local ZFS ssd/VM because the remote system
has diverged snapshots with us.
I presume this is because I currently run snapshots of my entire 3tb pool in a recursive fashion. This will then run snapshots of the replicated SSD snapshots (if that makes sense) hence causing this error message?The replication failed for the local ZFS ssd/VM because the remote system
