but it got me thinking about how things such as the current compression ratio for a volume could be indicated over a otherwise ZFS-agnostic NFS export. The .zfs snapdir came to mind. Perhaps ZFS could maintain a "special" file under there, called compressratio for example, and a remote client could cat it or whatever to be aware of how volume compression factors into their space usage.
Yeah, it would be cool to be able to access (read-only, at least) the zfs property settings over nfs via .zfs/props or some such. Filed RFE:
