Issue

Snapshot is deleted automatically on a volume after creation:

[Node-1: snap_helper: wafl.volume.snap.autoDelete:info]: Deleting Snapshot copy 'test_snapshot' in volume 'vol1@vserver:9f4eafe2-d86f-11e8-8f97-00xxxxxxxxxxx' to recover storage.

Cluster::> snapshot show *test_snapshot*

There are no entries matching your query.

The issue occurs when the volume percent-snapshot-space (snapshot reserve) is set to 0%:

Cluster::> vol show -vserver SVM1 -volume vol1 -fields percent-snapshot-space vserver volume percent-snapshot-space ------- ------ ---------------------- SVM1 vol1 0%
