Thanks for the suggestions I investigated onefs on your suggestion, and it gave 
me a hint as to the a potential fix.  On my client snapshot process isn't 
working properly.  The daily unmount is broken and I have multiple days (6) 
mounts being mounted in the same location /mnt/foobar.  I'm going to fix that 
umount issue and see if my problems go away.

Thank you!
