Snapshots exist in a share from failed NDMP backups.
The snapshots do not seem to be able to be deleted using the BUI and/or CLI.

Go to configuration service and select ndmp and restart the service :
CLI: configuration services ndmp> disable
CLI: configuration services ndmp> enable
Then try to remove/destroy the snapshots in question.
If above steps fail, engage Oracle customer support.
Changes
Customer reported NDMP backup server failed and never notified the ZFSSA.
