Techniques for managing non-snappable volumes are disclosed. In one particular exemplary embodiment, the techniques may be realized as a method for managing non-snappable volumes comprising identifying a virtual disk associated with a virtual machine, identifying a non-snappable volume associated with the virtual disk, analyzing the non-snappable volume, using at least one computer processor, to determine whether the non-snappable volume contains application data, and performing one or more responsive actions in the event the non-snappable volume is determined to contain application data.
