Folks,
While going through a quick tutorial on zfs, I came across a way to create zfs
filesystem within a filesystem. For example:
# zfs create mytest/peter
where mytest is a zpool filesystem.
When does this way, the new filesystem has the mount point
I created a zpool called 'data' from 7 disks.
I created zfs filesystems on the zpool for each Xen vm
I can choose to recursively snapshot all 'data'
I can choose to snapshot the individual 'directories'
If you use mkdir, I don't believe you can snapshot/restore at that level
