Do you have ACLs you need to maintain? Can you just specify a snapshot

Well we not (yet) worry about the ACLs as long we have a backup, using
zfs sent/receieve of the snapshot to 1 single tar en dan to tape..
I meant, rather than taring it up, can you just pass the snapshot mount
point to Networker as a saveset?
Does Networker error when you give it a ZFS filesystem or snapshot as a
saveset (not counting ACL warnings)?
i will have to try.. letme do this now and report tomorrow
I'll added /export/projects/.zfs/snapshot in the save set..
and btw: Networker 7.1.2 build 325... (we have 7.2 and 7.3 but never
upgraded since it works ...)
Its not going to work, without the patch. Networker aborts the backup
after it attempts to retrieve ACLs from the first file. What happens is
networker issues the acl(2) syscall with the parameters to retrieve
POSIX draft ACLs, and ZFS returns ENOSYS since it doesn't support POSIX
draft ACLs. As soon as networker gets an ENOSYS from acl(2) it aborts.
With the patch networker issues the correct syscalls and is able to
save/restore ACLs correctly.
