Nick, Specifying -v to zfs send doesn't result in much extra information, and only in certain cases. For example, if you do an incremental send, you'll get this piece of extra output: # zfs send -v -I t...@snap1 t...@snap2 >/tmp/x sending from @snap1 to t...@snap2 # zfs recv -v is a bit more chatty, but again, only in certain cases. Output from zfs send -v goes to stderr; output from zfs recv -v goes to stdout. -Chris _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
