You lost me in that one. If there is a zfs filesystem at the recipient... and you don't want to receive into a subdirectory of it ... then you have to overwrite it. And I don't see any reason not to overwrite it. You say the destination filesystem mustn't exist prior to receive... But did you know of the -F option? It forces the overwrite, if you want to receive and overwrite an existing filesystem. What am I missing? Or did I just answer it? _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
