Thanks, that was fast!

Hmm...  Looks like a unified diff to me...
The text leading up to this was:

Patching file /usr/local/bin/zfs-snapshot-mgmt using Plan A...
patch: **** malformed patch at line 12: @name).readlines.collect.select {

OK, so that didn´t go that well. Manually editing the script to what I think 
you ment:

/usr/local/bin/zfs-snapshot-mgmt:
#  def snapshots(prefix)
#    path = File.join(@mount_point, '.zfs', 'snapshot')
#    Dir.open(path).select do |name|
#      name[0, prefix.length] == prefix
#    end.map { |name| SnapshotInfo.new(name, @name, prefix) }
#  end

#    path = File.join(@mount_point, '.zfs', 'snapshot')
#    Dir.open(path).select do |name|
    s = IO.popen('zfs list -r -t snapshot -H -o name 
'@name).readlines.collect.select { |item| item[0, @name.length + 1] == @name 
'@' }.map { |item| item[@name.length + 1 .. -1] }
    s.select do |name|
      name[0, prefix.length] == prefix
    end.map { |name| SnapshotInfo.new(name, @name, prefix) }
  end


But recieves from cron:
/usr/local/bin/zfs-snapshot-mgmt:138: syntax error, unexpected tIVAR, expecting

... -t snapshot -H -o name '@name).readlines.collect.select { |...

Hi!

I am a storage-technician working at the Swedish University of Agriculture and 
we are using zfs-snapshot-mgmt to create scheduled snapshots, but are failing 
on our disaster-recovery machine because of:

/usr/local/bin/zfs-snapshot-mgmt:130:in `join': can't convert nil into String 
(TypeError)
from /usr/local/bin/zfs-snapshot-mgmt:130:in `snapshots'
from /usr/local/bin/zfs-snapshot-mgmt:137:in `snapshots_to_remove'
from /usr/local/bin/zfs-snapshot-mgmt:145:in `remove_snapshots'
from /usr/local/bin/zfs-snapshot-mgmt:213
from /usr/local/bin/zfs-snapshot-mgmt:210:in `each'
from /usr/local/bin/zfs-snapshot-mgmt:210

Now, since this is a disaster-recovery unit, I would rather not have to have 
all filesystems mounted for the script to function as we have many servers with 
many file systems backing up towards this unit, which would result in quite 
alot of mounts that are completely unnecessary to the backup server itself. I 
also consider it a potential security risk having all these file systems, from 
all of these different machines mounted in the same place(server). I mean, if 
someone would like to steal as much valuable data as possible, why crack 
hundreds of servers and steal it piece by piece when you could just crack one 
and have it all, right? That doesn´t really make sense because if someone were 
to crack the backup server they could just mount all filesystems themselves, 
but only if they knew they were there. But also having them mounted feels like 
just handing it to them.

Unfortunately I know nothing about programming so I can´t be of any help, 
besides testing patches, but do you think this can be done? Change the script 
so that it doesn´t require the file systems to be mounted for it to be able to 
take snapshots?

How about this?
