As the fsid is created when the file system is created it will be the same when you mount it on a different NFS server. Why change it? Or are you trying to match two different file systems? Then you also have to match all inode-numbers on your files. That is not possible at all. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
