Hi all,
I need to move a filesystem off of one host and onto another smaller one. The fs in question, with no compression enabled, is using 1.2 TB (refer). I'm hoping that zfs compression will dramatically reduce this requirement and allow me to keep the dataset on an 800 GB store. Does this sound feasible? Can I achieve the move to the new box using zfs send/receive? If so, how do I do it? Do I turn on compression on the target host just after I begin the zfs send/receive?

thx
jake
