Now that I’ve filled up data01, I bought some more SSDs and created another zpool. Today, on this snow-is-anticipated Saturday winter morning, I’m going to move some ZFS filesystems/datasets around. Side note: I like the term dataset better than filesystem. man zfs talks about datasets, which can be a file system, a volume, a snapshot, […]

Over the past few days, I’ve posted a lot about transferring jails from two hosts into one host. One of the steps involves using zfs send | zfs recv to send the files from one host to another. I’m using syncoide for that transfer. A new fileystem’s recordsize defaults to 128K. In my case, that

I’ve started merging these two hosts: r710-01 slocum into this one host: r740-01 The goal is to then retire those first two hosts. This post covers the initial bulk copy of all the data from two hosts into the one. In this post: FreeBSD 13.1 Each jail runs on its own zfs filesystem Not covered

Copies of data are good. Especially if on a different host. zfs snapshots combined with zfs send | zfs recv make replication of zfs file systems especially easy. I am already using sanoid to manage zfs snapshots. Now I’m going to use syncoid to transfer those snapshots to another host. Both sanoid and syncoid are
