Didn't include any reference to what you were replying about. So I don't know which messages you were replying to when you sent those. If you're using the jive forums, and you wish to carry on dialogue with people who are using email, it's recommended to copy & paste what you're replying to, into your reply, so the recipients know what you're replying to. I am guessing you're replying to people saying "use zfs send" So my answer is: It works very well. Another feature, in favor of zfs send instead of mirrors, is the fact that you can have your backup media compressed while your main pool probably isn't. And so forth. The opposite is also true. If you have any special properties set on your main pool, they won't automatically be set on your receiving pool. So I personally recommend saving "zpool get all" and "zfs get all" into a txt file, and store it along with your backup media. So you have it available, if ever there were any confusion about it at all. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
