Why ? clones are writeable and are thus changing. I don't think that is good advice at all. Snapshots don't change and are perfect for backups for that reason. You don't need to clone to be able to continue writting in the filesystem who's snapshot you are backing up. eg: $ zfs snapshot home/darrenm/[EMAIL PROTECTED] +%F` $ tar @pf /dev/tape Documents/ >> I am messing around with zfs snapshots, and was wondering if it is >> possible to mount a zfs snapshot.
