Hi,
We are replicating snapshots from a Nexenta system to an OmniOS system. Nexenta
calls this feature autosync. While they say it is only 100% supported between
nexenta systems, we managed to get it working with OmniOS too. It's Not rocket
science. But there is one big problem. In the

Hi Priyadarshan,
Thanks a lot for the quick and comprehensive answer. I agree that using a third
party tool might be helpful. When we started using the two ZFS systems, I
really had a hard time testing a few third party tools. One of the biggest
problems was that I wanted to be able to use the
did you replicate recursively?
keeping a different snap history should be possible when you send single
filesystems.

Hi Oliver,
Thank you for sharing your use-case on Nexenta.
A few years ago we also needed to have a DR site, and I tested several third
party tools.
The introduction of ZFS to Linux, with ZOL, made things more confused, by
adding several more tools (like sanoid:
Yes it is recursively. We have hundreds of child datasets so single filesystems
would be a real headache to maintain. :(

I suppose you can either keep the last snaps identical on source and
target with a simple zfs send recursively or
you need a script that cares about and does a send per filesystem to
allow a different number of snaps on the target system.
This is not related to Nexenta but I saw the same on
I think I really have to start investigating using 3rd party apps again.
Nexenta doesn't let me change the zfs send command. I can only adjust settings
for the autosync job.
