OK, you asked for "creative" workarounds... here's one (though it requires that the filesystem be briefly unmounted, which may be deal-killing): zfs create pool/realfs zfs set quota=1g pool/realfs again: zfs umount pool/realfs zfs rename pool/realfs pool/oldfs zfs snapshot pool/[EMAIL PROTECTED] zfs clone pool/[EMAIL PROTECTED] pool/realfs zfs set quota=1g pool/realfs (6364688 would be useful here) zfs set quota=none pool/oldfs zfs promote pool/oldfs zfs destroy pool/backupfs zfs rename pool/oldfs pool/backupfs backup pool/[EMAIL PROTECTED] sleep $backupinterval goto again FYI, we are working on "fs-only" quotas. --matt _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
