How about creating a new data set, moving the directory into it, and then destroying it? Assuming the directory in question is /opt/MYapp/data: 1. zfs create rpool/junk 2. mv /opt/MYapp/data /rpool/junk/ 3. zfs destroy rpool/junk _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
