Was at a Sun Office today for a talk on ZFS and asked a question to the Sun Engineer giving the talk about using UFSdump/restore for ZFS and he said yeah that works if you want to use it..........

'zfs send' and 'zfs receive' are the closest equivalents. ufsdump/ufsreceive are restricted solely to UFS filesystems.


Actually, while ufsdump can backup ufs filesystems only, ufsrestore does not really care where you are restoring the data to, it will write to pretty much any filesystem (ufs, zfs, nfs). So if you have UFS dumps created with ufsdump, you can restore them anywhere with ufsrestore.
