Is it just a couple files or an entire dataset?
Do the files / folders have any ACLs set?
If it is an entire dataset, then I would use zfs send | zfs recv.
If it is less than an entire dataset and there are NO ACLs set, then I
typically use rsync.
If it is less than an entire dataset and there ARE ACLs set, then your
choices are more limited. I tend to use the cp that ships with the OS.
I have also used NetBackup as it does properly handle the ACLs. Beware
of the GNU cp as it does not set the ACLs as of the last time I
checked.
