An earlier response from Matt Ahrens, to a similar question:

Where are properties of a ZFS filesystem stored (e.g. non-default mountpoints, quota, reservation, compression, exported shares etc.)? Do backup/restore mechanisms (zfs send/receive, Networker/NetBackup/TSM, *tar etc.) handle (save/restore) them automagically or are there additional procedures needed?

Thanks,
Franz
