If this was not the case, then the system > would not be very useful. It sure wouldn't. That was first take but like I said I wasn't that confident about being right. Its looking like I botched the job already. My intent was to create one top level zfs files system in the pool. But after your helpful and explanatory reply I see I carelessly mixed things up so that I used `zfs create' where I should have used mkdir zfs list -r zbk NAME USED AVAIL REFER MOUNTPOINT zbk 106G 50.5G 106G /zbk zbk/mob1 101K 50.5G 28.0K /zbk/mob1 zbk/mob1/acronis 49.3K 50.5G 25.3K /zbk/mob1/acronis zbk/mob1/acronis/022009 24.0K 50.5G 24.0K /zbk/mob1/acronis/022009 zbk/mob1/ghost 24.0K 50.5G 24.0K /zbk/mob1/ghost ls -lR /zbk|grep '^/' /zbk: /zbk/chub: /zbk/chub/ghost: /zbk/chub/ghost/021909: /zbk/harvey: /zbk/harvey/ghost: /zbk/harvey/ghost/022009: /zbk/mob1: /zbk/mob1/acronis: /zbk/mob1/acronis/022009: /zbk/mob1/ghost: > zfs rename zbk/hosts/mob1022009-full.tib zbk/hosts/mob1/022009-full.tib Probably the wrong move now that its clear how I screwed this up. I'm thinking something like this might clean things up? cd /rbk Starting with: ls -F . chub/ harvey/ mob1/ mob1MyBackup.tib zfs destroy -r mob1 mkdir -p mob1/acronis/022009/ mob1/ghost mv mob1MyBackup.tib mob1/acronis/022009/mob1_01.tib Is this about right... since there are no actual files under the zfs file system `mob1/', I can just get rid of it as shown above. And create the hierarchy I intended with standard tools mkdir and mv? I think I'll wait for a reply before I do any of that... _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
