Hi all I've ran into this thing a few times. A directory is filled up with scientific data, and a subdirectory of that is used as a workspace with hundreds of gigabytes of temporary data. When automatic snapshotting is enabled, this obviously eats disk space. Now, the obvious way to solve this is to never use those areas as workspace areas, and to teach the users to use separate areas for that, but then, the world is not always a nice place.
Would it be hard to add a way create a new dataset with an existing directory, separating this directory and subdirectories and files, perhaps also snapshots?
