Hi Gordon,
We are working toward making the root pool recovery process easier
in the future, for everyone. In the meantime, this is awesome work.
After I run through these steps myself, I would like to add this
procedure to the ZFS t/s wiki.
Thanks,
Cindy

Hi Marlanne,
Excellent question and thank you for asking...
We have a set of instructions for creating root pool snapshots and
root pool recovery, here:

Gerrit,
It seems you/they must already be scripting with ufsdump now. It's no

Hi,
Yes, a trivial wrapper could:
1. Store all property values in a file in the fs
2. zfs send...
3. zfs receive...
4. Set all the properties stored in that file
IMHO 3. and 4. need to be swapped - otherwise e.g. files will
not be compressed when restored.
hmm, I assumed that the ZFS stream

Is the idea of 'zfs send -p' to only send the properities in addition to
the content or
without content? Actually I would expect sending the poperties as the
default for send
and an option for receive not to apply the properties - and have an
option (-p) for
send to send only the properties e.g.
Yep, thanks for digging that up. FYI, this is RFE 6421959 "want zfs
send to preserve properties ('zfs send -p')".
