However, when you replicate back to the primary, you will need the last common snapshot to exist on the primary and any data written on the primary since the last common snapshot will be eliminated. If this is not what you want, then you should look at software designed to do remote replication -- something like AVS. -- richard _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
