As the thread unfolds, it appears, although netapp may sometimes have some problems with "mv" directories ... This is evidence that appears to be weakening ... Sometimes they do precisely what you would want them to do. Which is, to have the .snapshot directory available under every subdirectory, and the contents are the best you could hope for that location. Meaning, the parent directory .snapshot contains an image of the way the filesystem looked at the time of the snapshot, but the snapshots of the children, even after the children were renamed, preserve the history of where the children came from (before they were renamed via "mv"). Still waiting to know more; maybe the bad behavior was a bug that was fixed in some release. But to anyone who may have read that thread already: there are conflicting results coming from different people now. Meaning, 3 data points, with 2 good and 1 bad. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
