The machine has been running stably, but auto snapshotting was disabled a couple of months back due to some service. I re-enabled it a couple of hours ago, and svcs shows the services running, both time-slider and auto-snapshot services. Now, looking for new snapshots show nothing new.

Look in /var/adm/messages for messages regarding auto deleting the frequent snapshots.

I had issues with disk space that caused the auto-snapshot service to delete the frequent snapshots before they could be rolled up to hourly.
