Hi Folks --
I created a backup of a 50GB zvol (rpool/vista) the other day by
making a snapshot and
sending via:
# zfs create -V 50g rpool/vista
...
# zfs snapshot rpool/vi...@snapshotname
# zfs send -R rpool/vi...@snapshotname > vista.zfs
I would now like to restore but am getting errors (I'm completely new
to this):
# zfs create -V 50g rpool/vista
# zfs receive -v rpool/vista < vista.zfs
cannot receive: must use -d to receive replication (-R) stream
# zfs receive -F -v -d rpool/vista < vista.zfs
cannot open rpool/vista: operation not applicable to datasets of this
type
cannot receive new filesystem stream: unable to restore to detination
I know the data was backed up (vista.zfs is a 24G file), how do I get
the contents
of my zvol back? I'm using OpenSolaris 2009.06.
Many thanks in advance,
John
