You can also explicitly create lower-version pools with "zpool create -o version=14 ...", if you need to create one from a machine with a newer kernel. -- Dan Nelson dnel...@allantgroup.com ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

ZFS data from snv_b134 to fbsd
I want to transfer a lot of ZFS data from an old OpenSolaris ZFS mirror (v22) to a new FreeBSD-8.1 ZFs mirror (v14). If I boot off the OpenSolaris boot CD and import both mirrors will the copying from v22 ZFS to v14 ZFS be harmless? I'm not sure if this is teh right mailinglist for this question.
