Well one thing is - I've never used send/recv before first off, and I'm comfortable with rsync - and rsync 3.x is a hell of a lot more efficient too with large amounts of files. Although most of these are large files, not large file counts. I'd probably try to upgrade this to snv_110 at the same time and update the zpool format too while I'm at it. Hopefully it would resolve any possible oddities... and not introduce new ones. Like how I can't install snv_110 on my other machine properly, it just gives me a grub prompt on reboot, it doesn't seem to install zfs root properly or something. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
