I was thinking of something a little different. Don't worry about devices, because you don't send to a device (rather, send to a pool). So a simple list of source file systems and a list of destinations would do. I suppose you could work up something with pictures and arrows, like Nautilus, but that might just be more confusing than useful. But that is the easy part. The hard part is dealing with the plethora of failure modes... -- richard _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
