Replicate dataset including all snapshots

Post by kisiel »

Dear all,

I would like to replicate dataset to another nas4free box including all snapshots and preferably keep them in sync from this moment on.
This would probably mean cron job replicating new snapshots later on.
If there's no other way I can even decide to replicate compete pool.

Do you know about any script able to do this?
I think ZXFER should be able to do the magic but it seem to not work on FreeBSD 9.0

any ideas?

Thank you
Marcin

Is there any plan for ZFS replication task, like in FreeNAS?
For now, can somebody point to documentation on howto do this by command line?
Sorry for my ignorance, I am a newbie!

Thanks
