looking through some more code.. i was a bit premature in my last post - been a long day.
extracting the guids and query the metadata seems to be logical -> i think runnign a zfs send just to parse the data stream is a lot of overhead, when you really only need to traverse metadata directly. zdb sources have most of the bits there - just need to unwind the deadlist (this seems to match the numder of blocks that have been deleted since the last snap)... might look into this in the next week or 2 if i have time -> seems like a worthwhile project ;-) Darren Mackay -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
