Is compression set on the dataset, or is it being inherited from a
parent dataset?

I think only locally set properties are preserved.

Hi Daniel,

D'oh...

I found a related bug when I looked at this yesterday but I didn't think
it was your problem because you didn't get a busy message.

You could try 'zfs get mountpoint' (or 'zdb -vvv poolname > file' and 
search the file for 'mountpoint') to see if that was set.


I'd like to try the dtrace debugging, but it would destroy the progress 
I've made so far transferring the filesystem.




Maybe you could try receiving into a new pool that you can later throw away.

zpool create bogustestpool c0t0d0
zfs send -R promise1/arch...@daily.1 | zfs receive -vd bogustestpool

I'd try the following in the source dataset:

The advice regarding received vs local properties definitely does not 
apply. You could still confirm the presence of the compression property 
in the send stream with zstreamdump, since the send side is running 
build 129. To debug the receive side I might dtrace the zap_update() 
function with the fbt provider, something like


zfs send -R promise1/arch...@daily.1 | dtrace -c 'zfs receive -vd sas' \ 
-n 'fbt::zap_update:entry / stringof(args[2]) == "compression" ||  \

stringof(args[2]) == "compression$recvd" / { self->trace = 1; }'  \
-n 'fbt::zap_update:return / self->trace / { trace(args[1]); \
self->trace = 0; }'

and look for non-zero return values.

I'd also redirect 'zdb -vvv poolname' to a file and search it for 
"compression" to check the value in the ZAP.


I assume you have permission to set the compression property on the 
receive side, but I'd check anyway.

We have found the problem. The mountpoint property on the sender was at one

Re: [zfs-discuss] compression property not received

2010-04-07 Thread Daniel Bakken
I worked around the problem by first creating a filesystem of the same name
with compression=gzip on the target server. Like this:

zfs create sas/archive
zfs set compression=gzip sas/archive

Then I used zfs receive with the -F option:

zfs send -vR promise1/arch...@daily.1 | zfs send zfs receive -vFd sas

And now I have gzip compression enabled locally:

zfs get compression sas/archive
NAME PROPERTY VALUE SOURCE
sas/archive  compression  gzip  local

Not pretty, but it works.

Hi Daniel,

I tried to reproduce this by sending from a b130 system to a s10u9 
system, which vary in pool versions, but this shouldn't matter. I've

been sending/receiving streams between latest build systems and
older s10 systems for a long time. The zfs send -R option to send a
recursive snapshot and all properties integrated into b77 so that
isn't your problem either.

The above works as expected. See below.

zfs send -R promise1/arch...@daily.1 | zfs receive -vd sas

The zfs manpage says regarding the -R flag: "When received, all 
properties, snapshots, descendent file systems, and clones are 
preserved." Snapshots are preserved, but the compression property is 
not. Any ideas why this doesn't work as advertised?


Thanks,

Daniel Bakken

[zfs-discuss] compression property not received

2010-04-07 Thread Daniel Bakken
When I send a filesystem with compression=gzip to another server with
compression=on, compression=gzip is not set on the received filesystem. I am
using:

zfs send -R promise1/arch...@daily.1 | zfs receive -vd sas

The zfs manpage says regarding the -R flag: "When received, all properties,
snapshots, descendent file systems, and clones are preserved." Snapshots are
preserved, but the compression property is not. Any ideas why this doesn't
work as advertised?

Thanks,

Daniel Bakken
