Answer

  • There is no direct setting for this
  • The manually created snapshot can be deleted immediately by the following setting:
::> vol modify -vserver vserver_name -volume volume_name -percent-snapshot-space 0
::> volume snapshot autodelete modify -vserver vserver_name -volume volume_name -enabled true -commitment destroy -defer-delete none -trigger snap_reserve
