Note that to see all of the local snapshots you should do tmutil listlocalsnapshots / (without the com.apple.TimeMachine.date argument); the information printed will let you know what dates to supply to tmutil deletelocalsnapshots

| Jul 12, 2019 at 17:45 | comment | added | Jeremy Friesner | This fixed the problem for me -- apparently Time Machine likes to cache backups on my system partition (even though my external Time Machine drive is mounted and available) and then MacOS/X tries to hide that fact from me in its GUI disk-space indicators, but "df -h ." (and more importantly, VMWare Fusion) still see that the space has been used. The latter is a problem because Fusion starts panicking and shutting down VM guests when it thinks the drive is low on disk space. | |
