I'm not trying to fix anything in particular, I'm just curious. In case I rollback a filesystem and then realize, I wanted a file from the original file system (before rollback).
I read the section on clones here: http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-5461/gavvx?a=view but I'm still not sure what clones are. They sound the same as snapshots. From what I read, it seems like it is possible to snapshot a filesystem, clone the snapshot and then rollback the file system. At this point the clone will be the same size as the data changed during the rollback? So from the clone, files that were unique to the filesystem before rollback can be restored? Thanks. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
