[OpenIndiana-discuss] the dirty lowdown hold not giving up the ghost

I hope this is something I've boneheadedly overlooked.

I ran into a `busy' snapshot I want to destroy.

I tried the methods given here:

https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19253-01/819-5461/gjdfk/index.html

destroy -d and then release -r keep

Neither appear to do a blessed thing.

Surely the damn thing can't just stay `busy' from no on.

the number of the snapshot is 140929 which is also the date of creation.
So this thing has been hanging here for 7 yrs already and by all outward
appearances is prepared for many more.

There must be some trick way to unhold this dog.
