I have had some success using zfs send recv into a child of a compressed filesystem to do this although you have the disadvantage of losing your settings. basically : zfs create tank/foo mv a bunch of files into foo zfs create tank/bar zfs set compression=on bar zfs snapshot tank/[EMAIL PROTECTED] zfs send tank/[EMAIL PROTECTED] | zfs recv tank/bar/foosmall zfs destroy tank/foo zfs set compression=on tank/bar/foosmall zfs rename tank/bar/foosmall tank/foo kinda clunky and you have to have twice as much space available and there are probably other issues with it as I am not a pro zfs user here but, worked for me =) Asa _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
