That's contradictory, you tell you want to delete data to free space but on the other hand, you want to keep that same data (in the snapshot).

To free space, you can send that snapshot to an external storage and destroy it when done.

Alternatively, you can enable compression on existing filesystems but the effect won't be immediate.
