Hi Darren,

thank you for the clarification, I didn't know that.

> See the man page for zfs(1) where the -R options for send is discussed.

oh, this is new. Thank you for bringing us -R.

Back to Brad's RFS, what would one need to do to send a stream from a
compressed filesystem to one with a different compression setting, if
the source file system has the compression attribute set to a specific
algorithm (i.e. not inherited)?

Will leaving out -R just create a new, but plain unencrypted fs on the
receivig side?

What if one wants to replicated a whole package of filesystems via
-R, but change properties on the receiving side before it happens?

Best regards,
    Constantin
