I recently added a new disk to a workstation that just had one disk which was 
being used as the boot disk with a large partition being used as a zpool. I 
added a new disk to this system and created a new pool comprised of only the 
new disk in order to migrate all the data on the original zfs partition to the 
new disk. I don't want to store any data on the original disk anymore.

As root, I used zfs send/receive to move data from one pool to the other. The 
problem was that some of the original filesystems were created by different 
users and zfs's creator-delegated-permissions were being used. The permission 
sets were preserved across the transfer, but the filesystems were created as 
root on the new pool so the creator permissions didn't continue to work for the 
filesystem creator on the original pool.

Is there a way to either preserve which user created the filesystem across a 
send/receive? I'm in an NFS environment.

Or is there a way to manually set the creator of a fileystem?

Thanks,
Haik
