Did you ever find a solution to this? I have a similar problem, where my ZFS snapshot was sent through gzip out to a file. I tried to gzcat the file out to a new ZFS, but got the "cannot receive new filesystem stream: invalid backup stream" error. At that point I just ran gunzip on the file and it extracted the zip with no problem, so at least the integrity of the zip file was OK. I've done this with several other backups with no problems and can't figure out why this one fails. The file is a sparse Zvol 17G in size containing a virtual machine that I'd really like to get back...
Other details - the original ZFS was created at ZFS version 14 on SNV b105, trying to be restored to ZFS version 15 on SNV b114. Any help would be appreciated. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
