With  this method the transfer rate was slower and toke 11 hours to  
copy files but without any problems,
but that could be because of ZFS needs tuning or something since I'm  
transferring from the partition.

Thanks for the help one them worked and now I have my files in ZFS  
solaris  partition now.
