Hi,
I redirected a zfs send stream to a file on a smbfs mount (Windows share):
zfs send snapshot /mnt/win/snapshot.zfs
When zfs receiving this file, the process aborts due to an 'invalid backup
stream' error. zfs receive -nv gives a little bit more information:
Assertion failed: !invalid
Hi Remco,
isn't the ssh example used in a context where you immediately receive the
stream (on another solaris system)? What I'm trying to do is storing a
snapshot on another system or media (tape, dvd,...) and restoring it later. I
know zfs send and receive are not ideal as a backup
Niels,
I do this all the time, to a USB connected external drive. And I have
managed to restore a snapshot too :-)
I don't see why you could mount an NFS mount from the service where you
want to backup too. I wonder if windows does something bad to the file,
is it larger then 2 Gb?
..Remco
Hi Remco,
the snapshots are indeed large files (just over 4gb). I haven't had problems
copying tarballs over 2gb to this share however. I'll tar my home directory
and try to copy that too to find out what happens :-)

It should save lots of network bandwitdh. Plus, IF it does
Hi,
Just wondering, why didn't you compress it first?
I'm just trying out the basic zfs features on my home pc. I don't pay a lot of
attentention to network bandwidth or compression at the moment..
And afaik, there's no issue with large files on OpenSolaris, I can copy a
tarball of my home

Make sure that the unix shell you are using

It should save lots of network bandwitdh. Plus, IF it does have
something to do with file too large, compressing should help as a
workaround.

The 'lzop' compressor is much better for this since it is *much*

Sure, when enabling compression on zfs fs.
