To be a bit more detailed, first create the file system on the target machine by sending the first snapshot that you want to have replicated in full. After that, send each of the following snapshots incrementally, based on the previous. So if you have this on host a: tank/m...@snap1 tank/m...@snap2 tank/m...@snap3 tank/m...@snap4 and a pool "data" on host b, do it like this: a# zfs send tank/m...@snap1 | ssh b zfs recv -d data a# zfs send -i tank/m...@snap1 tank/m...@snap2 | ssh b zfs recv data/myfs a# zfs send -i tank/m...@snap2 tank/m...@snap3 | ssh b zfs recv data/myfs a# zfs send -i tank/m...@snap3 tank/m...@snap4 | ssh b zfs recv data/myfs Regards, Juergen. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
