--- Comment #3 from Hugh O'Brien <mail at hughobrien.ie> ---
Thank you, for reference I suggested disabling snaps due to the following man
page entry.

  -n         Do not create a .snap directory on the new file system.  The
             resulting file system will not support snapshot generation, so
             dump(8) in live mode and background fsck(8) will not function
             properly.  The traditional fsck(8) and offline dump(8) will work
             on the file system.  This option is intended primarily for memory
             or vnode-backed file systems that do not require dump(8) or
             fsck(8) support.
