I wonder if there are any equivalent commands in zfs to dump all its associated 
snapshots at maximum efficiency (only the changed data blocks among all 
snapshots)?   I know you can just "zfs send" all snapshots but each one is like 
a full dump and if you use "zfs send -i" it is hard to maintain the 
relationship of the snapshots.

In NetApp filer,  I can do "snapmirror store /vol/vol01 ..."  then everything 
in /vol/vol01 and all of its snapshots will be mirrored to destination, and it 
is block level which means only the changes in snapshots are sent out.

So I wonder if there is an equivalent for ZFS to do similar things:
For example:   given one zfs:  diskpool/myzfs,  it has n snapshots:
         diskpool/[EMAIL PROTECTED], diskpool/[EMAIL PROTECTED],......  
diskpool/[EMAIL PROTECTED],
and if you just do "zfs < magic subcommands> diskpool/myzfs ..." and it will 
dump myzfs and all its n snapshots out at maximum efficiency (only changed data 
in snapshots) ?

Any hints/helps are aprreciated!
