Hi All, My question is related to: 6839260 want zfs send with properties.
I'm running "zfs send | mbuffer | network | mbuffer | zfs recv" nightly between two arrays (2008.11), but my backup script does not do recursive send/recv - it walks through all datasets, sends the increments one by one and re-creates any newly added datasets. I'm wondering if any of you are using a similar solution and ran into the same issue. Non-recursive send/recv does not send (all) properties of a dataset - for example quota and compression. What I'm thinking of is just defining properties I want to synchronize, and doing them one by one like this: for dataset in $datasets; do for prop in $props; do A=zfs get -Ho value $prop $dataset B=ssh slave zfs get -Ho value $prop $dataset if [ B!=A ]; then ssh slave zfs set $prop=$A $dataset; fi done done The example above is of course simplified, as we also have inherited properties - but Is there any smarter / proper way of synchronizing properties between two pools (on 2008.11)? Basically, the properties I care about are: quota, compression, share* Many thanks, owczi -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
