You could try to restore on a snv_91 system. zfs send streams is not for backups. This is from the zfs man page: The format of the stream is evolving. No backwards com- patibility is guaranteed. You may not be able to receive your streams on future versions of ZFS. Or the file was corrupted when you transfered it. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
