I could, just don't know of S10 would allow it on that side? I figured looking at the script it was for Solaris and not OpenSolaris, my bad. I can just ignore those errors on the send side, it's working just fine. Thanks! jlc ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss

I had to make some simple changes to the ssh syntax as I use a specific user and identity file going from Solaris 10 to OpenSolaris 0906 but I am getting this message: The Source snapshot does exist on the Destination, clear to send a new one!

It has worked quite well for me, and proved to be quite useful in restoring as well (already had to use it). E-mails status reports, handles conflicts in a simple but effective way, and replication can be "reversed" by just starting to run it from the other system. I expanded on it by being able to handle A-B and B-A replication (mirror half of A to B, and half of B to A for paired redundancy). I'll post that version up in a few weeks when I clean it up a little.

[zfs-discuss] Managing ZFS Replication
Anyone come up with a solution to manage the replication of ZFS snapshots? The send/recv criteria gets tricky with all but the first unless you purge the destination of snapshots, then force a full stream into it. I was hoping to script a daily update but I see that I would have to keep track of what's been done on both sides when using the -i|I syntax so it would not be reliable in a hands off script. Would AVS be a possible solution in a mixed S10/Osol/SXCE environment? I presume that would make it fairly trivially but right now I am duplicating data from an s10 box to an osol snv118 box based on hardware/application needs forcing the two platforms. Thanks for any ideas! jlc ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
