[i] zpool create newhome c0d0s7 zfs snapshot [EMAIL PROTECTED] zfs send [EMAIL PROTECTED] | zfs receive newhome/home
A 1:1 copy of the zfs "home" should then exist in "/newhome/home". [/i] 'should' was the right word. It doesn't; and has actually destroyed my poor chances to mount it. I hope someone can help me !!? This is what I did: % zpool create -f newhome c0d0s7 [There were some data of earlier experiments] % zfs snapshot [EMAIL PROTECTED] % zfs list: home 2.38G 135G 2.37G /export/home [EMAIL PROTECTED] 0 - 2.37 - newhome 85K 27.6G 24.5k /newhome % zfs send [EMAIL PROTECTED] | zfs receive newhome/home [quite some activity, then:] home 2.38G 135G 2.37G /export/home [EMAIL PROTECTED] 0 - 2.37 - newhome 2.62G 24.9G 25.5k /newhome newhome/home 2.62G 24.9G 2.62G /newhome/home So far so good. But after reboot to c0d0, there is no home directory any more found: "Your home is listed as /export/home/udippel but it does not appear to exist. ...." >From a terminal, I can get the partition though: c0d0s7 is 7 home 28.11 GB But whatever mount command I give, it will return 'invalid dataset name'; inclusive 'mount -a'. Though home is listed in mnttab, and I didn't touch [b]anything[/b]. Just boot and reboot plus the commands as above. [I just call this all a great crap. It ought to 'backup mountpoint drive'; but also your suggestion looked kind of logic.] And in case anyone asked, I can confirm that c0d0s7 did mount properly before. Please, anyone help me to mount the /home again, without reinstalling cod0 from scratch [the only thing I could think of with my very limited understanding] !!
