So something like: zfs snapshot fastsan/[EMAIL PROTECTED] zfs clone fastsan/[EMAIL PROTECTED] fastsan/zfs3/night zfs set readonly=on fastsan/zfs3/night ...do backup... zfs destroy fastsan/zfs3/night This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
