Hi Harry!
> If you want to create a copy of your entire OS on a remote machine by > means of send/recv do you need to send rpool/ROOT? Typically, you will need to send the entire rpool. That's what the "zfs send -R" command is for. It replicates everything, including all properties you need to make the target system bootable. If you don't need a bootable copy, there's really no point in copying the entire OS over. If you *really* still want to do that, the easiest way to find the dataset of the currently active BE is to do "cd / ; df -h ." That will show you where the current root is mounted from. What exactly are you trying to do? Regards -- Volker -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Volker A.
