"zfs recv -vn < file" will check the integrity of the zfs stream in file. However, this is only a one-time check; if the data is corrupted later the stream will not be recoverable. You might consider using something like par2 [1] to generate parity:
The most commonly available program which self-validates data is 'gzip' but 'lzop' is faster. Besides self-validation, there is the advantage that the data is smaller due to compression. Nothing prevents validating the self-verifying archive file via this "zfs recv -vn " technique.
