The copy-on-write is done on a block basis, not a file basis. Blocks of data don't point back to the files in which they're contained; the pointers go the other direction, so mapping from block back to file is usually non-trivial. > What I REALLY want to achieve is to see who is writing what to my > dataset when it really shouldn't be written to! Solution A: mount the dataset as read-only and see who complains. Solution B: run a "diff -r" and note the changed files. Solution C: write a small program to compare attributes using nftw. -- James Carlson 42.703N 71.076W <carls...@workingcode.com> _______________________________________________ openindiana-discuss mailing list openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
