Hello,

I'm seeing a strange problem trying to use zfs promote.

[root@san2]# zfs snapshot san/sr@snap
[root@san2]# zfs clone san/sr@snap san/sr5
[root@san2]# zfs promote san/sr5
cannot promote 'san/sr5': dataset is busy

Being a freshly created dataset I'm not sure how it would be busy. Are
there any caveats to using zfs promote on zvols? The snapshots are of
ext3 formatted zvols. I don't really need to promote them but wanted
to in case I needed to destroy the source for some reason.

Thanks,
