Hi Till, Thanks a lot for your good explanation. It is really confusing as in the manual it states that refquota doesn’t take descendants or snaps into account. I might play around with bookmarks later. For now I guess I can use:
zfs receive -x refquota to exclude the property? How about I have started to recursively replicate a dataset and it failed on one of the child datasets due to the refquota issue. Can I somehow resume the replication of the parent dataset or do I have to replicate the child dataset first using incremental snapshots? Normally I only use the built in auto sync feature on our nexenta storage, but this time I have to sync back the data Manually to the nexenta system.
