Hi all, I'm a little (ok, a lot) confused on the whole zfs send/receive commands. I've seen mention of using zfs send between two different machines, but no good howto in order to make it work. I have one try-n-buy x4500 that we are trying to move data from onto a new x4500 that we've purchased. Right now I'm using rsync over ssh (via 1GB/s network) to copy the data but it is almost painfully slow (700GB over 24 hours). Yeah, it's a load of small files for the most part. Anyway, would zfs send/receive work better? Do you have to set up a service on the receiving machine in order to receive the zfs stream?
The machine is an x4500 running Solaris 10 u5.
