Also, deleting containers should also delete its snapshot (tested on lxd 3.17). There is "snapshots.pattern" container configuration, but it won't help much since in your case you already deleted the container. So (again) my guess is the snapshot is something created by an additional tool (external to lxd. A manual or scheduled btrfs snapshot, perhaps?). In which case your (former) sysadmin should know more. -- Fajar
