This feature has been in ZFS since day 1. You would promote a snapshot to a clone, and mount that clone where ever you wish: 1) Create the snapshot: zfs snapshot somepool/[EMAIL PROTECTED] 2) Promote the snapshot to a file system, which would be mounted at / somepool/snap: zfs clone somepool/[EMAIL PROTECTED] somepool/snap 3) Optionally mount that cloned snapshot somewhere else: zfs set mountpoint=/snapshot somepool/snap /dale _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
