Trying to figure out if there is a way to do this without zfs sending a ton of data. I have:

  • s/test1, inside it are folders:
    • folder1
    • folder2

I have this pool backed up remotely by sending snapshots.

I’d like to split this up into:

  • s/test1, inside is folder:
    • folder1
  • s/test2, inside is folder:
    • folder2

I’m trying to figure out if there is some combination of clone and promote that would limit the amount of data needed to be sent over the network.

Or maybe there is some record/replay method I could do on snapshots that I’m not aware of.

Thoughts?

    I can’t think of a way off hand to match your scenario, but Ive heard ideas suggested that come close. This is exactly the type of question you should ask at practicalzfs.com.

    If you don’t know it, that’s Jim Salter’s forum (author of sanoid and syncoid) and there are some sharp ZFS experts hanging out there.
