I have a lot of snapshots. I used to periodically do a zfs send/receive to another box (omniOS) and store the critical data there, deleting the unnecessary parts that were created in the send/receive. But that got too much for the backup network to handle, so I just have the snapshots. Is there a practical limit to what is stored as snapshots on a host before it affects performance? I just wonder if it's a better strategy to only store maybe a week or month's worth of daily snaps per VM and the rest move the files to a different location. Or do previous snapshots not affect the running VMs at all?
