A dataset is identified by a unique path within the .Tn ZFS namespace. For example: .Bd -ragged -offset 4n .No pool/ Ns Brq filesystem,volume,snapshot .Ed .Pp where the maximum length of a dataset name is .Dv MAXNAMELEN (256 bytes). .Pp A dataset can be one of the following: .Bl -hang -width 12n .It Sy file system A .Tn ZFS dataset of type .Em filesystem can be mounted within the standard system namespace and behaves like other file systems. While .Tn ZFS file systems are designed to be .Tn POSIX compliant, known issues exist that prevent compliance in some cases. Applications that depend on standards conformance might fail due to nonstandard behavior when checking file system free space. .It Sy volume A logical volume exported as a raw or block device. This type of dataset should only be used under special circumstances. File systems are typically used in most environments. .It Sy snapshot A read-only version of a file system or volume at a given point in time. It is specified as .Em filesystem@name or .Em volume@name . .El .Ss ZFS File System Hierarchy A .Tn ZFS storage pool is a logical collection of devices that provide space for datasets. A storage pool is also the root of the .Tn ZFS file system hierarchy. .Pp The root of the pool can be accessed as a file system, such as mounting and unmounting, taking snapshots, and setting properties. The physical storage characteristics, however, are managed by the .Xr zpool 8 command. .Pp See .Xr zpool 8 for more information on creating and administering pools. .Ss Snapshots A snapshot is a read-only copy of a file system or volume. Snapshots can be created extremely quickly, and initially consume no additional space within the pool. As data within the active dataset changes, the snapshot consumes more data than would otherwise be shared with the active dataset. .Pp Snapshots can have arbitrary names. Snapshots of volumes can be cloned or rolled back, but cannot be accessed independently. .Pp File system snapshots can be accessed under the .Pa \&.zfs/snapshot directory in the root of the file system. Snapshots are automatically mounted on demand and may be unmounted at regular intervals. The visibility of the .Pa \&.zfs directory can be controlled by the .Sy snapdir property. .Ss Clones A clone is a writable volume or file system whose initial contents are the same as another dataset. As with snapshots, creating a clone is nearly instantaneous, and initially consumes no additional space. .Pp Clones can only be created from a snapshot. When a snapshot is cloned, it creates an implicit dependency between the parent and child. Even though the clone is created somewhere else in the dataset hierarchy, the original snapshot cannot be destroyed as long as a clone exists. The .Sy origin property exposes this dependency, and the .Cm destroy command lists any such dependencies, if they exist. .Pp The clone parent-child dependency relationship can be reversed by using the .Cm promote subcommand. This causes the "origin" file system to become a clone of the specified file system, which makes it possible to destroy the file system that the clone was created from. .Ss Mount Points Creating a .Tn ZFS file system is a simple operation, so the number of file systems per system is likely to be numerous. To cope with this, .Tn ZFS automatically manages mounting and unmounting file systems without the need to edit the .Pa /etc/fstab file. All automatically managed file systems are mounted by .Tn ZFS at boot time. .Pp By default, file systems are mounted under .Pa /path , where .Ar path is the name of the file system in the .Tn ZFS namespace. Directories are created and destroyed as needed. .Pp A file system can also have a mount point set in the .Sy mountpoint property. This directory is created as needed, and .Tn ZFS automatically mounts the file system when the .Qq Nm Cm mount Fl a command is invoked (without editing .Pa /etc/fstab ) . The .Sy mountpoint property can be inherited, so if .Em pool/home has a mount point of .Pa /home , then .Em pool/home/user automatically inherits a mount point of .Pa /home/user . .Pp A file system .Sy mountpoint property of .Cm none prevents the file system from being mounted. .Pp If needed, .Tn ZFS file systems can also be managed with traditional tools .Pq Xr mount 8 , Xr umount 8 , Xr fstab 5 . If a file system's mount point is set to .Cm legacy , .Tn ZFS makes no attempt to manage the file system, and the administrator is responsible for mounting and unmounting the file system. .Ss Deduplication Deduplication is the process for removing redundant data at the block-level, reducing the total amount of data stored. If a file system has the .Cm dedup property enabled, duplicate data blocks are removed synchronously. The result is that only unique data is stored and common components are shared among files. .Ss Native Properties Properties are divided into two types, native properties and user-defined (or "user") properties. Native properties either export internal statistics or control .Tn ZFS behavior. In addition, native properties are either editable or read-only. User properties have no effect on .Tn ZFS behavior, but you can use them to annotate datasets in a way that is meaningful in your environment. For more information about user properties, see the .Qq Sx User Properties section, below. .Pp Every dataset has a set of properties that export statistics about the dataset as well as control various behaviors. Properties are inherited from the parent unless overridden by the child. Some properties apply only to certain types of datasets (file systems, volumes, or snapshots). .Pp The values of numeric properties can be specified using human-readable suffixes (for example, .Sy k , KB , M , Gb , and so forth, up to .Sy Z for zettabyte). The following are all valid (and equal) specifications: .Bd -ragged -offset 4n 1536M, 1.5g, 1.50GB .Ed .Pp The values of non-numeric properties are case sensitive and must be lowercase, except for .Sy mountpoint , sharenfs , No and Sy sharesmb . .Pp The following native properties consist of read-only statistics about the dataset. These properties can be neither set, nor inherited. Native properties apply to all dataset types unless otherwise noted. .Bl -tag -width 2n .It Sy available The amount of space available to the dataset and all its children, assuming that there is no other activity in the pool. Because space is shared within a pool, availability can be limited by any number of factors, including physical pool size, quotas, reservations, or other datasets within the pool. .Pp This property can also be referred to by its shortened column name, .Sy avail . .It Sy compressratio For non-snapshots, the compression ratio achieved for the .Sy used space of this dataset, expressed as a multiplier. The .Sy used property includes descendant datasets, and, for clones, does not include the space shared with the origin snapshot. For snapshots, the .Sy compressratio is the same as the .Sy refcompressratio property. Compression can be turned on by running: .Qq Nm Cm set compression=on Ar dataset The default value is .Cm off . .It Sy creation The time this dataset was created. .It Sy clones For snapshots, this property is a comma-separated list of filesystems or volumes which are clones of this snapshot. The clones' .Sy origin property is this snapshot. If the .Sy clones property is not empty, then this snapshot can not be destroyed (even with the .Fl r or .Fl f options). .It Sy defer_destroy This property is .Cm on if the snapshot has been marked for deferred destroy by using the .Qq Nm Cm destroy -d command. Otherwise, the property is .Cm off . .It Sy filesystem_count The total number of filesystems and volumes that exist under this location in the dataset tree. This value is only available when a .Sy filesystem_limit has been set somewhere in the tree under which the dataset resides. .It Sy logicalreferenced The amount of space that is .Qq logically accessible by this dataset. See the .Sy referenced property. The logical space ignores the effect of the .Sy compression and .Sy copies properties, giving a quantity closer to the amount of data that applications see. However, it does include space consumed by metadata. .Pp This property can also be referred to by its shortened column name, .Sy lrefer . .It Sy logicalused The amount of space that is .Qq logically consumed by this dataset and all its descendents. See the .Sy used property. The logical space ignores the effect of the .Sy compression and .Sy copies properties, giving a quantity closer to the amount of data that applications see. .Pp This property can also be referred to by its shortened column name, .Sy lused . .It Sy mounted For file systems, indicates whether the file system is currently mounted. This property can be either .Cm yes or .Cm no . .It Sy origin For cloned file systems or volumes, the snapshot from which the clone was created. See also the .Sy clones property. .It Sy receive_resume_token For filesystems or volumes which have saved partially-completed state from .Sy zfs receive -s , this opaque token can be provided to .Sy zfs send -t to resume and complete the .Sy zfs receive . .It Sy referenced The amount of data that is accessible by this dataset, which may or may not be shared with other datasets in the pool. When a snapshot or clone is created, it initially references the same amount of space as the file system or snapshot it was created from, since its contents are identical. .Pp This property can also be referred to by its shortened column name, .Sy refer . .It Sy refcompressratio The compression ratio achieved for the .Sy referenced space of this dataset, expressed as a multiplier. See also the .Sy compressratio property. .It Sy snapshot_count The total number of snapshots that exist under this location in the dataset tree. This value is only available when a .Sy snapshot_limit has been set somewhere in the tree under which the dataset resides. .It Sy type The type of dataset: .Sy filesystem , volume , No or Sy snapshot . .It Sy used The amount of space consumed by this dataset and all its descendents. This is the value that is checked against this dataset's quota and reservation. The space used does not include this dataset's reservation, but does take into account the reservations of any descendent datasets. The amount of space that a dataset consumes from its parent, as well as the amount of space that are freed if this dataset is recursively destroyed, is the greater of its space used and its reservation. .Pp When snapshots (see the .Qq Sx Snapshots section) are created, their space is initially shared between the snapshot and the file system, and possibly with previous snapshots. As the file system changes, space that was previously shared becomes unique to the snapshot, and counted in the snapshot's space used. Additionally, deleting snapshots can increase the amount of space unique to (and used by) other snapshots. .Pp The amount of space used, available, or referenced does not take into account pending changes. Pending changes are generally accounted for within a few seconds. Committing a change to a disk using .Xr fsync 2 or .Sy O_SYNC does not necessarily guarantee that the space usage information is updated immediately. .It Sy usedby* The .Sy usedby* properties decompose the .Sy used properties into the various reasons that space is used. Specifically, .Sy used No = .Sy usedbysnapshots + usedbydataset + usedbychildren + usedbyrefreservation . These properties are only available for datasets created with .Tn ZFS pool version 13 pools and higher. .It Sy usedbysnapshots The amount of space consumed by snapshots of this dataset. In particular, it is the amount of space that would be freed if all of this dataset's snapshots were destroyed. Note that this is not simply the sum of the snapshots' .Sy used properties because space can be shared by multiple snapshots. .It Sy usedbydataset The amount of space used by this dataset itself, which would be freed if the dataset were destroyed (after first removing any .Sy refreservation and destroying any necessary snapshots or descendents). .It Sy usedbychildren The amount of space used by children of this dataset, which would be freed if all the dataset's children were destroyed. .It Sy usedbyrefreservation The amount of space used by a .Sy refreservation set on this dataset, which would be freed if the .Sy refreservation was removed. .It Sy userused@ Ns Ar user The amount of space consumed by the specified user in this dataset. Space is charged to the owner of each file, as displayed by .Qq Nm ls Fl l . The amount of space charged is displayed by .Qq Nm du and .Qq Nm ls Fl s . See the .Qq Nm Cm userspace subcommand for more information. .Pp Unprivileged users can access only their own space usage. The root user, or a user who has been granted the .Sy userused privilege with .Qq Nm Cm allow , can access everyone's usage. .Pp The .Sy userused@ Ns ... properties are not displayed by .Qq Nm Cm get all . The user's name must be appended after the .Sy @ symbol, using one of the following forms: .Bl -bullet -offset 2n .It POSIX name (for example, .Em joe ) .It POSIX numeric ID (for example, .Em 1001 ) .El .It Sy userrefs This property is set to the number of user holds on this snapshot. User holds are set by using the .Qq Nm Cm hold command. .It Sy groupused@ Ns Ar group The amount of space consumed by the specified group in this dataset. Space is charged to the group of each file, as displayed by .Nm ls Fl l . See the .Sy userused@ Ns Ar user property for more information. .Pp Unprivileged users can only access their own groups' space usage. The root user, or a user who has been granted the .Sy groupused privilege with .Qq Nm Cm allow , can access all groups' usage. .It Sy volblocksize Ns = Ns Ar blocksize For volumes, specifies the block size of the volume. The .Ar blocksize cannot be changed once the volume has been written, so it should be set at volume creation time. The default .Ar blocksize for volumes is 8 Kbytes. Any power of 2 from 512 bytes to 128 Kbytes is valid. .Pp This property can also be referred to by its shortened column name, .Sy volblock . .It Sy written The amount of .Sy referenced space written to this dataset since the previous snapshot. .It Sy written@ Ns Ar snapshot The amount of .Sy referenced space written to this dataset since the specified snapshot. This is the space that is referenced by this dataset but was not referenced by the specified snapshot. .Pp The .Ar snapshot may be specified as a short snapshot name (just the part after the .Sy @ ) , in which case it will be interpreted as a snapshot in the same filesystem as this dataset. The .Ar snapshot may be a full snapshot name .Pq Em filesystem@snapshot , which for clones may be a snapshot in the origin's filesystem (or the origin of the origin's filesystem, etc). .El .Pp The following native properties can be used to change the behavior of a .Tn ZFS dataset. .Bl -tag -width 2n .It Xo .Sy aclinherit Ns = Ns Cm discard | .Cm noallow | .Cm restricted | .Cm passthrough | .Cm passthrough-x .Xc Controls how .Tn ACL entries are inherited when files and directories are created. A file system with an .Sy aclinherit property of .Cm discard does not inherit any .Tn ACL entries. A file system with an .Sy aclinherit property value of .Cm noallow only inherits inheritable .Tn ACL entries that specify "deny" permissions. The property value .Cm restricted (the default) removes the .Em write_acl and .Em write_owner permissions when the .Tn ACL entry is inherited. A file system with an .Sy aclinherit property value of .Cm passthrough inherits all inheritable .Tn ACL entries without any modifications made to the .Tn ACL entries when they are inherited. A file system with an .Sy aclinherit property value of .Cm passthrough-x has the same meaning as .Cm passthrough , except that the .Em owner@ , group@ , No and Em everyone@ Tn ACE Ns s inherit the execute permission only if the file creation mode also requests the execute bit. .Pp When the property value is set to .Cm passthrough , files are created with a mode determined by the inheritable .Tn ACE Ns s. If no inheritable .Tn ACE Ns s exist that affect the mode, then the mode is set in accordance to the requested mode from the application. .It Sy aclmode Ns = Ns Cm discard | groupmask | passthrough | restricted Controls how an .Tn ACL is modified during .Xr chmod 2 . A file system with an .Sy aclmode property of .Cm discard (the default) deletes all .Tn ACL entries that do not represent the mode of the file. An .Sy aclmode property of .Cm groupmask reduces permissions granted in all .Em ALLOW entries found in the .Tn ACL such that they are no greater than the group permissions specified by .Xr chmod 2 . A file system with an .Sy aclmode property of .Cm passthrough indicates that no changes are made to the .Tn ACL other than creating or updating the necessary .Tn ACL entries to represent the new mode of the file or directory. An .Sy aclmode property of .Cm restricted will cause the .Xr chmod 2 operation to return an error when used on any file or directory which has a non-trivial .Tn ACL whose entries can not be represented by a mode. .Xr chmod 2 is required to change the set user ID, set group ID, or sticky bits on a file or directory, as they do not have equivalent .Tn ACL entries. In order to use .Xr chmod 2 on a file or directory with a non-trivial .Tn ACL when .Sy aclmode is set to .Cm restricted , you must first remove all .Tn ACL entries which do not represent the current mode. .It Sy atime Ns = Ns Cm on | off Controls whether the access time for files is updated when they are read. Turning this property off avoids producing write traffic when reading files and can result in significant performance gains, though it might confuse mailers and other similar utilities. The default value is .Cm on . .It Sy canmount Ns = Ns Cm on | off | noauto If this property is set to .Cm off , the file system cannot be mounted, and is ignored by .Qq Nm Cm mount Fl a . Setting this property to .Cm off is similar to setting the .Sy mountpoint property to .Cm none , except that the dataset still has a normal .Sy mountpoint property, which can be inherited. Setting this property to .Cm off allows datasets to be used solely as a mechanism to inherit properties. One example of setting .Sy canmount Ns = Ns Cm off is to have two datasets with the same .Sy mountpoint , so that the children of both datasets appear in the same directory, but might have different inherited characteristics. .Pp When the .Cm noauto value is set, a dataset can only be mounted and unmounted explicitly. The dataset is not mounted automatically when the dataset is created or imported, nor is it mounted by the .Qq Nm Cm mount Fl a command or unmounted by the .Qq Nm Cm umount Fl a command. .Pp This property is not inherited. .It Sy checksum Ns = Ns Cm on | off | fletcher2 | fletcher4 | sha256 | noparity | sha512 | skein Controls the checksum used to verify data integrity. The default value is .Cm on , which automatically selects an appropriate algorithm (currently, .Cm fletcher4 , but this may change in future releases). The value .Cm off disables integrity checking on user data. The value .Cm noparity not only disables integrity but also disables maintaining parity for user data. This setting is used internally by a dump device residing on a RAID-Z pool and should not be used by any other dataset. Disabling checksums is .Em NOT a recommended practice. The .Sy sha512 , and .Sy skein checksum algorithms require enabling the appropriate features on the pool. Please see .Xr zpool-features 7 for more information on these algorithms. .Pp Changing this property affects only newly-written data. .It Sy compression Ns = Ns Cm on | off | lzjb | gzip | gzip- Ns Ar N | Cm zle | Cm lz4 Controls the compression algorithm used for this dataset. Setting compression to .Cm on indicates that the current default compression algorithm should be used. The default balances compression and decompression speed, with compression ratio and is expected to work well on a wide variety of workloads. Unlike all other settings for this property, on does not select a fixed compression type. As new compression algorithms are added to ZFS and enabled on a pool, the default compression algorithm may change. The current default compression algorthm is either .Cm lzjb or, if the .Sy lz4_compress feature is enabled, .Cm lz4 . The .Cm lzjb compression algorithm is optimized for performance while providing decent data compression. Setting compression to .Cm on uses the .Cm lzjb compression algorithm. The .Cm gzip compression algorithm uses the same compression as the .Xr gzip 1 command. You can specify the .Cm gzip level by using the value .Cm gzip- Ns Ar N where .Ar N is an integer from 1 (fastest) to 9 (best compression ratio). Currently, .Cm gzip is equivalent to .Cm gzip-6 (which is also the default for .Xr gzip 1 ) . The .Cm zle compression algorithm compresses runs of zeros. .Pp The .Sy lz4 compression algorithm is a high-performance replacement for the .Sy lzjb algorithm. It features significantly faster compression and decompression, as well as a moderately higher compression ratio than .Sy lzjb , but can only be used on pools with the .Sy lz4_compress feature set to .Sy enabled . See .Xr zpool-features 7 for details on ZFS feature flags and the .Sy lz4_compress feature. .Pp This property can also be referred to by its shortened column name .Cm compress . Changing this property affects only newly-written data. .It Sy copies Ns = Ns Cm 1 | 2 | 3 Controls the number of copies of data stored for this dataset. These copies are in addition to any redundancy provided by the pool, for example, mirroring or RAID-Z. The copies are stored on different disks, if possible. The space used by multiple copies is charged to the associated file and dataset, changing the .Sy used property and counting against quotas and reservations. .Pp Changing this property only affects newly-written data. Therefore, set this property at file system creation time by using the .Fl o Cm copies= Ns Ar N option. .It Sy dedup Ns = Ns Cm on | off | verify | sha256 Ns Oo Cm ,verify Oc | Sy sha512 Ns Oo Cm ,verify Oc | Sy skein Ns Oo Cm ,verify Oc Configures deduplication for a dataset. The default value is .Cm off . The default deduplication checksum is .Cm sha256 (this may change in the future). When .Sy dedup is enabled, the checksum defined here overrides the .Sy checksum property. Setting the value to .Cm verify has the same effect as the setting .Cm sha256,verify . .Pp If set to .Cm verify , .Tn ZFS will do a byte-to-byte comparsion in case of two blocks having the same signature to make sure the block contents are identical. .It Sy devices Ns = Ns Cm on | off The .Sy devices property is currently not supported on .Nx . .It Sy exec Ns = Ns Cm on | off Controls whether processes can be executed from within this file system. The default value is .Cm on . .It Sy mlslabel Ns = Ns Ar label | Cm none The .Sy mlslabel property is currently not supported on .Nx . .It Sy filesystem_limit Ns = Ns Ar count | Cm none Limits the number of filesystems and volumes that can exist under this point in the dataset tree. The limit is not enforced if the user is allowed to change the limit. Setting a .Sy filesystem_limit on a descendent of a filesystem that already has a .Sy filesystem_limit does not override the ancestor's .Sy filesystem_limit , but rather imposes an additional limit. This feature must be enabled to be used .Po see .Xr zpool-features 7 .Pc . .It Sy mountpoint Ns = Ns Ar path | Cm none | legacy Controls the mount point used for this file system. See the .Qq Sx Mount Points section for more information on how this property is used. .Pp When the .Sy mountpoint property is changed for a file system, the file system and any children that inherit the mount point are unmounted. If the new value is .Cm legacy , then they remain unmounted. Otherwise, they are automatically remounted in the new location if the property was previously .Cm legacy or .Cm none , or if they were mounted before the property was changed. In addition, any shared file systems are unshared and shared in the new location. .It Sy nbmand Ns = Ns Cm on | off The .Sy nbmand property is currently not supported on .Nx . .It Sy primarycache Ns = Ns Cm all | none | metadata Controls what is cached in the primary cache (ARC). If this property is set to .Cm all , then both user data and metadata is cached. If this property is set to .Cm none , then neither user data nor metadata is cached. If this property is set to .Cm metadata , then only metadata is cached. The default value is .Cm all . .It Sy quota Ns = Ns Ar size | Cm none Limits the amount of space a dataset and its descendents can consume. This property enforces a hard limit on the amount of space used. This includes all space consumed by descendents, including file systems and snapshots. Setting a quota on a descendent of a dataset that already has a quota does not override the ancestor's quota, but rather imposes an additional limit. .Pp Quotas cannot be set on volumes, as the .Sy volsize property acts as an implicit quota. .It Sy snapshot_limit Ns = Ns Ar count | Cm none Limits the number of snapshots that can be created on a dataset and its descendents. Setting a .Sy snapshot_limit on a descendent of a dataset that already has a .Sy snapshot_limit does not override the ancestor's .Sy snapshot_limit , but rather imposes an additional limit. The limit is not enforced if the user is allowed to change the limit. For example, this means that recursive snapshots taken from the global zone are counted against each delegated dataset within a jail. This feature must be enabled to be used .Po see .Xr zpool-features 7 .Pc . .It Sy userquota@ Ns Ar user Ns = Ns Ar size | Cm none Limits the amount of space consumed by the specified user. Similar to the .Sy refquota property, the .Sy userquota space calculation does not include space that is used by descendent datasets, such as snapshots and clones. User space consumption is identified by the .Sy userspace@ Ns Ar user property. .Pp Enforcement of user quotas may be delayed by several seconds. This delay means that a user might exceed their quota before the system notices that they are over quota and begins to refuse additional writes with the .Em EDQUOT error message. See the .Cm userspace subcommand for more information. .Pp Unprivileged users can only access their own groups' space usage. The root user, or a user who has been granted the .Sy userquota privilege with .Qq Nm Cm allow , can get and set everyone's quota. .Pp This property is not available on volumes, on file systems before version 4, or on pools before version 15. The .Sy userquota@ Ns ... properties are not displayed by .Qq Nm Cm get all . The user's name must be appended after the .Sy @ symbol, using one of the following forms: .Bl -bullet -offset 2n .It POSIX name (for example, .Em joe ) .It POSIX numeric ID (for example, .Em 1001 ) .El .It Sy groupquota@ Ns Ar group Ns = Ns Ar size | Cm none Limits the amount of space consumed by the specified group. Group space consumption is identified by the .Sy userquota@ Ns Ar user property. .Pp Unprivileged users can access only their own groups' space usage. The root user, or a user who has been granted the .Sy groupquota privilege with .Qq Nm Cm allow , can get and set all groups' quotas. .It Sy readonly Ns = Ns Cm on | off Controls whether this dataset can be modified. The default value is .Cm off . .It Sy recordsize Ns = Ns Ar size Specifies a suggested block size for files in the file system. This property is designed solely for use with database workloads that access files in fixed-size records. .Tn ZFS automatically tunes block sizes according to internal algorithms optimized for typical access patterns. .Pp For databases that create very large files but access them in small random chunks, these algorithms may be suboptimal. Specifying a .Sy recordsize greater than or equal to the record size of the database can result in significant performance gains. Use of this property for general purpose file systems is strongly discouraged, and may adversely affect performance. .Pp The size specified must be a power of two greater than or equal to 512 and less than or equal to 128 Kbytes. If the .Sy large_blocks feature is enabled on the pool, the size may be up to 1 Mbyte. See .Xr zpool-features 7 for details on ZFS feature flags. .Pp Changing the file system's .Sy recordsize affects only files created afterward; existing files are unaffected. .Pp This property can also be referred to by its shortened column name, .Sy recsize . .It Sy redundant_metadata Ns = Ns Cm all | most Controls what types of metadata are stored redundantly. ZFS stores an extra copy of metadata, so that if a single block is corrupted, the amount of user data lost is limited. This extra copy is in addition to any redundancy provided at the pool level .Pq e.g. by mirroring or RAID-Z , and is in addition to an extra copy specified by the .Sy copies property .Pq up to a total of 3 copies . For example if the pool is mirrored, .Cm copies Ns = Ns Ar 2 , and .Cm redundant_metadata Ns = Ns Ar most , then ZFS stores 6 copies of most metadata, and 4 copies of data and some metadata. .Pp When set to .Cm all , ZFS stores an extra copy of all metadata. If a single on-disk block is corrupt, at worst a single block of user data .Po which is .Cm recordsize bytes long can be lost. .Pc .Pp When set to .Cm most , ZFS stores an extra copy of most types of metadata. This can improve performance of random writes, because less metadata must be written. In practice, at worst about 100 blocks .Po of .Cm recordsize bytes each .Pc of user data can be lost if a single on-disk block is corrupt. The exact behavior of which metadata blocks are stored redundantly may change in future releases. .Pp The default value is .Cm all . .It Sy refquota Ns = Ns Ar size | Cm none Limits the amount of space a dataset can consume. This property enforces a hard limit on the amount of space used. This hard limit does not include space used by descendents, including file systems and snapshots. .It Sy refreservation Ns = Ns Ar size | Cm none The minimum amount of space guaranteed to a dataset, not including its descendents. When the amount of space used is below this value, the dataset is treated as if it were taking up the amount of space specified by .Sy refreservation . The .Sy refreservation reservation is accounted for in the parent datasets' space used, and counts against the parent datasets' quotas and reservations. .Pp If .Sy refreservation is set, a snapshot is only allowed if there is enough free pool space outside of this reservation to accommodate the current number of "referenced" bytes in the dataset. .Pp This property can also be referred to by its shortened column name, .Sy refreserv . .It Sy reservation Ns = Ns Ar size | Cm none The minimum amount of space guaranteed to a dataset and its descendents. When the amount of space used is below this value, the dataset is treated as if it were taking up the amount of space specified by its reservation. Reservations are accounted for in the parent datasets' space used, and count against the parent datasets' quotas and reservations. .Pp This property can also be referred to by its shortened column name, .Sy reserv . .It Sy secondarycache Ns = Ns Cm all | none | metadata Controls what is cached in the secondary cache (L2ARC). If this property is set to .Cm all , then both user data and metadata is cached. If this property is set to .Cm none , then neither user data nor metadata is cached. If this property is set to .Cm metadata , then only metadata is cached. The default value is .Cm all . .It Sy setuid Ns = Ns Cm on | off Controls whether the .No set- Ns Tn UID bit is respected for the file system. The default value is .Cm on . .It Sy sharesmb Ns = Ns Cm on | off | Ar opts The .Sy sharesmb property currently has no effect on .Nx . .It Sy sharenfs Ns = Ns Cm on | off | Ar opts Controls whether the file system is shared via .Tn NFS , and what options are used. A file system with a .Sy sharenfs property of .Cm off is managed the traditional way via .Xr exports 5 . Otherwise, the file system is automatically shared and unshared with the .Qq Nm Cm share and .Qq Nm Cm unshare commands. If the property is set to .Cm on no .Tn NFS export options are used. Otherwise, .Tn NFS export options are equivalent to the contents of this property. The export options may be comma-separated. See .Xr exports 5 for a list of valid options. .Pp When the .Sy sharenfs property is changed for a dataset, the .Xr mountd 8 daemon is reloaded. .It Sy logbias Ns = Ns Cm latency | throughput Provide a hint to .Tn ZFS about handling of synchronous requests in this dataset. If .Sy logbias is set to .Cm latency (the default), .Tn ZFS will use pool log devices (if configured) to handle the requests at low latency. If .Sy logbias is set to .Cm throughput , .Tn ZFS will not use configured pool log devices. .Tn ZFS will instead optimize synchronous operations for global pool throughput and efficient use of resources. .It Sy snapdir Ns = Ns Cm hidden | visible Controls whether the .Pa \&.zfs directory is hidden or visible in the root of the file system as discussed in the .Qq Sx Snapshots section. The default value is .Cm hidden . .It Sy sync Ns = Ns Cm standard | always | disabled Controls the behavior of synchronous requests (e.g. .Xr fsync 2 , O_DSYNC). This property accepts the following values: .Bl -tag -offset 4n -width 8n .It Sy standard This is the POSIX specified behavior of ensuring all synchronous requests are written to stable storage and all devices are flushed to ensure data is not cached by device controllers (this is the default). .It Sy always All file system transactions are written and flushed before their system calls return. This has a large performance penalty. .It Sy disabled Disables synchronous requests. File system transactions are only committed to stable storage periodically. This option will give the highest performance. However, it is very dangerous as .Tn ZFS would be ignoring the synchronous transaction demands of applications such as databases or .Tn NFS . Administrators should only use this option when the risks are understood. .El .It Sy volsize Ns = Ns Ar size For volumes, specifies the logical size of the volume. By default, creating a volume establishes a reservation of equal size. For storage pools with a version number of 9 or higher, a .Sy refreservation is set instead. Any changes to .Sy volsize are reflected in an equivalent change to the reservation (or .Sy refreservation ) . The .Sy volsize can only be set to a multiple of .Cm volblocksize , and cannot be zero. .Pp The reservation is kept equal to the volume's logical size to prevent unexpected behavior for consumers. Without the reservation, the volume could run out of space, resulting in undefined behavior or data corruption, depending on how the volume is used. These effects can also occur when the volume size is changed while it is in use (particularly when shrinking the size). Extreme care should be used when adjusting the volume size. .Pp Though not recommended, a "sparse volume" (also known as "thin provisioning") can be created by specifying the .Fl s option to the .Qq Nm Cm create Fl V command, or by changing the reservation after the volume has been created. A "sparse volume" is a volume where the reservation is less then the volume size. Consequently, writes to a sparse volume can fail with .Sy ENOSPC when the pool is low on space. For a sparse volume, changes to .Sy volsize are not reflected in the reservation. .It Sy volmode Ns = Ns Cm default | geom | dev | none This property specifies how volumes should be exposed to the OS. Setting it to .Sy geom exposes volumes as .Xr geom 4 providers, providing maximal functionality. Setting it to .Sy dev exposes volumes only as cdev device in devfs. Such volumes can be accessed only as raw disk device files, i.e. they can not be partitioned, mounted, participate in RAIDs, etc, but they are faster, and in some use scenarios with untrusted consumer, such as NAS or VM storage, can be more safe. Volumes with property set to .Sy none are not exposed outside ZFS, but can be snapshoted, cloned, replicated, etc, that can be suitable for backup purposes. Value .Sy default means that volumes exposition is controlled by system-wide sysctl/tunable .Va vfs.zfs.vol.mode , where .Sy geom , .Sy dev and .Sy none are encoded as 1, 2 and 3 respectively. The default values is .Sy geom . This property can be changed any time, but so far it is processed only during volume creation and pool import. .It Sy vscan Ns = Ns Cm off | on The .Sy vscan property is currently not supported on .Nx . .It Sy xattr Ns = Ns Cm off | on The .Sy xattr property is currently not supported on .Nx . .El .Pp The following three properties cannot be changed after the file system is created, and therefore, should be set when the file system is created. If the properties are not set with the .Qq Nm Cm create or .Nm zpool Cm create commands, these properties are inherited from the parent dataset. If the parent dataset lacks these properties due to having been created prior to these features being supported, the new file system will have the default values for these properties. .Bl -tag -width 4n .It Sy casesensitivity Ns = Ns Cm sensitive | insensitive | mixed Indicates whether the file name matching algorithm used by the file system should be case-sensitive, case-insensitive, or allow a combination of both styles of matching. The default value for the .Sy casesensitivity property is .Cm sensitive . Traditionally, UNIX and POSIX file systems have case-sensitive file names. .Pp The .Cm mixed value for the .Sy casesensitivity property indicates that the file system can support requests for both case-sensitive and case-insensitive matching behavior. .It Sy normalization Ns = Ns Cm none | formC | formD | formKC | formKD Indicates whether the file system should perform a .Sy unicode normalization of file names whenever two file names are compared, and which normalization algorithm should be used. File names are always stored unmodified, names are normalized as part of any comparison process. If this property is set to a legal value other than .Cm none , and the .Sy utf8only property was left unspecified, the .Sy utf8only property is automatically set to .Cm on . The default value of the .Sy normalization property is .Cm none . This property cannot be changed after the file system is created. .It Sy utf8only Ns = Ns Cm on | off Indicates whether the file system should reject file names that include characters that are not present in the .Sy UTF-8 character code set. If this property is explicitly set to .Cm off , the normalization property must either not be explicitly set or be set to .Cm none . The default value for the .Sy utf8only property is .Cm off . This property cannot be changed after the file system is created. .El .Pp The .Sy casesensitivity , normalization , No and Sy utf8only properties are also new permissions that can be assigned to non-privileged users by using the .Tn ZFS delegated administration feature. .Ss Temporary Mount Point Properties When a file system is mounted, either through .Xr mount 8 for legacy mounts or the .Qq Nm Cm mount command for normal file systems, its mount options are set according to its properties. The correlation between properties and mount options is as follows: .Bl -column -offset 4n "PROPERTY" "MOUNT OPTION" .It "PROPERTY MOUNT OPTION" .It "atime atime/noatime" .It "exec exec/noexec" .It "readonly ro/rw" .It "setuid suid/nosuid" .El .Pp In addition, these options can be set on a per-mount basis using the .Fl o option, without affecting the property that is stored on disk. The values specified on the command line override the values stored in the dataset. These properties are reported as "temporary" by the .Qq Nm Cm get command. If the properties are changed while the dataset is mounted, the new setting overrides any temporary settings. .Ss User Properties In addition to the standard native properties, .Tn ZFS supports arbitrary user properties. User properties have no effect on .Tn ZFS behavior, but applications or administrators can use them to annotate datasets (file systems, volumes, and snapshots). .Pp User property names must contain a colon .Pq Sy \&: character to distinguish them from native properties. They may contain lowercase letters, numbers, and the following punctuation characters: colon .Pq Sy \&: , dash .Pq Sy \&- , period .Pq Sy \&. and underscore .Pq Sy \&_ . The expected convention is that the property name is divided into two portions such as .Em module Ns Sy \&: Ns Em property , but this namespace is not enforced by .Tn ZFS . User property names can be at most 256 characters, and cannot begin with a dash .Pq Sy \&- . .Pp When making programmatic use of user properties, it is strongly suggested to use a reversed .Tn DNS domain name for the .Ar module component of property names to reduce the chance that two independently-developed packages use the same property name for different purposes. Property names beginning with .Em com.sun are reserved for use by Sun Microsystems. .Pp The values of user properties are arbitrary strings, are always inherited, and are never validated. All of the commands that operate on properties .Po .Qq Nm Cm list , .Qq Nm Cm get , .Qq Nm Cm set and so forth .Pc can be used to manipulate both native properties and user properties. Use the .Qq Nm Cm inherit command to clear a user property. If the property is not defined in any parent dataset, it is removed entirely. Property values are limited to 1024 characters. .Sh SUBCOMMANDS All subcommands that modify state are logged persistently to the pool in their original form. .Bl -tag -width 2n .It Xo .Nm .Op Fl \&? .Xc .Pp Displays a help message. .It Xo .Nm .Cm create .Op Fl pu .Oo Fl o Ar property Ns = Ns Ar value Oc Ns ... .Ar filesystem .Xc .Pp Creates a new .Tn ZFS file system. The file system is automatically mounted according to the .Sy mountpoint property inherited from the parent. .Bl -tag -width indent .It Fl p Creates all the non-existing parent datasets. Datasets created in this manner are automatically mounted according to the .Sy mountpoint property inherited from their parent. Any property specified on the command line using the .Fl o option is ignored. If the target filesystem already exists, the operation completes successfully. .It Fl u Newly created file system is not mounted. .It Fl o Ar property Ns = Ns Ar value Sets the specified property as if the command .Qq Nm Cm set Ar property Ns = Ns Ar value was invoked at the same time the dataset was created. Any editable .Tn ZFS property can also be set at creation time. Multiple .Fl o options can be specified. An error results if the same property is specified in multiple .Fl o options. .El .It Xo .Nm .Cm create .Op Fl ps .Op Fl b Ar blocksize .Oo Fl o Ar property Ns = Ns Ar value Oc Ns ... .Fl V .Ar size volume .Xc .Pp Creates a volume of the given size. The volume is exported as a block device in .Pa /dev/zvol/path , where .Ar path is the name of the volume in the .Tn ZFS namespace. The size represents the logical size as exported by the device. By default, a reservation of equal size is created. .Pp .Ar size is automatically rounded up to the nearest 128 Kbytes to ensure that the volume has an integral number of blocks regardless of .Ar blocksize . .Bl -tag -width indent .It Fl p Creates all the non-existing parent datasets. Datasets created in this manner are automatically mounted according to the .Sy mountpoint property inherited from their parent. Any property specified on the command line using the .Fl o option is ignored. If the target filesystem already exists, the operation completes successfully. .It Fl s Creates a sparse volume with no reservation. See .Sy volsize in the .Qq Sx Native Properties section for more information about sparse volumes. .It Fl b Ar blocksize Equivalent to .Fl o Cm volblocksize Ns = Ns Ar blocksize . If this option is specified in conjunction with .Fl o Cm volblocksize , the resulting behavior is undefined. .It Fl o Ar property Ns = Ns Ar value Sets the specified property as if the .Qq Nm Cm set Ar property Ns = Ns Ar value command was invoked at the same time the dataset was created. Any editable .Tn ZFS property can also be set at creation time. Multiple .Fl o options can be specified. An error results if the same property is specified in multiple .Fl o options. .El .It Xo .Nm .Cm destroy .Op Fl fnpRrv .Ar filesystem Ns | Ns Ar volume .Xc .Pp Destroys the given dataset. By default, the command unshares any file systems that are currently shared, unmounts any file systems that are currently mounted, and refuses to destroy a dataset that has active dependents (children or clones). .Bl -tag -width indent .It Fl r Recursively destroy all children. .It Fl R Recursively destroy all dependents, including cloned file systems outside the target hierarchy. .It Fl f Force an unmount of any file systems using the .Qq Nm Cm unmount Fl f command. This option has no effect on non-file systems or unmounted file systems. .It Fl n Do a dry-run ("No-op") deletion. No data will be deleted. This is useful in conjunction with the .Fl v or .Fl p flags to determine what data would be deleted. .It Fl p Print machine-parsable verbose information about the deleted data. .It Fl v Print verbose information about the deleted data. .El .Pp Extreme care should be taken when applying either the .Fl r or the .Fl R options, as they can destroy large portions of a pool and cause unexpected behavior for mounted file systems in use. .It Xo .Nm .Cm destroy .Op Fl dnpRrv .Sm off .Ar snapshot .Op % Ns Ar snapname .Op , Ns ... .Sm on .Xc .Pp The given snapshots are destroyed immediately if and only if the .Qq Nm Cm destroy command without the .Fl d option would have destroyed it. Such immediate destruction would occur, for example, if the snapshot had no clones and the user-initiated reference count were zero. .Pp If a snapshot does not qualify for immediate destruction, it is marked for deferred deletion. In this state, it exists as a usable, visible snapshot until both of the preconditions listed above are met, at which point it is destroyed. .Pp An inclusive range of snapshots may be specified by separating the first and last snapshots with a percent sign .Pq Sy % . The first and/or last snapshots may be left blank, in which case the filesystem's oldest or newest snapshot will be implied. .Pp Multiple snapshots (or ranges of snapshots) of the same filesystem or volume may be specified in a comma-separated list of snapshots. Only the snapshot's short name (the part after the .Sy @ ) should be specified when using a range or comma-separated list to identify multiple snapshots. .Bl -tag -width indent .It Fl r Destroy (or mark for deferred deletion) all snapshots with this name in descendent file systems. .It Fl R Recursively destroy all clones of these snapshots, including the clones, snapshots, and children. If this flag is specified, the .Fl d flag will have no effect. .It Fl n Do a dry-run ("No-op") deletion. No data will be deleted. This is useful in conjunction with the .Fl v or .Fl p flags to determine what data would be deleted. .It Fl p Print machine-parsable verbose information about the deleted data. .It Fl v Print verbose information about the deleted data. .It Fl d Defer snapshot deletion. .El .Pp Extreme care should be taken when applying either the .Fl r or the .Fl R options, as they can destroy large portions of a pool and cause unexpected behavior for mounted file systems in use. .It Xo .Nm .Cm destroy .Ar filesystem Ns | Ns Ar volume Ns # Ns Ar bookmark .Xc .Pp The given bookmark is destroyed. .It Xo .Nm .Cm snapshot Ns | Ns Cm snap .Op Fl r .Oo Fl o Ar property Ns = Ns Ar value Oc Ns ... .Ar filesystem@snapname Ns | Ns volume@snapname .Ar filesystem@snapname Ns | Ns volume@snapname Ns ... .Xc .Pp Creates snapshots with the given names. All previous modifications by successful system calls to the file system are part of the snapshots. Snapshots are taken atomically, so that all snapshots correspond to the same moment in time. See the .Qq Sx Snapshots section for details. .Bl -tag -width indent .It Fl r Recursively create snapshots of all descendent datasets .It Fl o Ar property Ns = Ns Ar value Sets the specified property; see .Qq Nm Cm create for details. .El .It Xo .Nm .Cm rollback .Op Fl rRf .Ar snapshot .Xc .Pp Roll back the given dataset to a previous snapshot. When a dataset is rolled back, all data that has changed since the snapshot is discarded, and the dataset reverts to the state at the time of the snapshot. By default, the command refuses to roll back to a snapshot other than the most recent one. In order to do so, all intermediate snapshots and bookmarks must be destroyed by specifying the .Fl r option. .Pp The .Fl rR options do not recursively destroy the child snapshots of a recursive snapshot. Only direct snapshots of the specified filesystem are destroyed by either of these options. To completely roll back a recursive snapshot, you must rollback the individual child snapshots. .Bl -tag -width indent .It Fl r Destroy any snapshots and bookmarks more recent than the one specified. .It Fl R Destroy any more recent snapshots and bookmarks, as well as any clones of those snapshots. .It Fl f Used with the .Fl R option to force an unmount of any clone file systems that are to be destroyed. .El .It Xo .Nm .Cm clone .Op Fl p .Oo Fl o Ar property Ns = Ns Ar value Oc Ns ... .Ar snapshot filesystem Ns | Ns Ar volume .Xc .Pp Creates a clone of the given snapshot. See the .Qq Sx Clones section for details. The target dataset can be located anywhere in the .Tn ZFS hierarchy, and is created as the same type as the original. .Bl -tag -width indent .It Fl p Creates all the non-existing parent datasets. Datasets created in this manner are automatically mounted according to the .Sy mountpoint property inherited from their parent. If the target filesystem or volume already exists, the operation completes successfully. .It Fl o Ar property Ns = Ns Ar value Sets the specified property; see .Qq Nm Cm create for details. .El .It Xo .Nm .Cm promote .Ar clone-filesystem .Xc .Pp Promotes a clone file system to no longer be dependent on its "origin" snapshot. This makes it possible to destroy the file system that the clone was created from. The clone parent-child dependency relationship is reversed, so that the origin file system becomes a clone of the specified file system. .Pp The snapshot that was cloned, and any snapshots previous to this snapshot, are now owned by the promoted clone. The space they use moves from the origin file system to the promoted clone, so enough space must be available to accommodate these snapshots. No new space is consumed by this operation, but the space accounting is adjusted. The promoted clone must not have any conflicting snapshot names of its own. The .Cm rename subcommand can be used to rename any conflicting snapshots. .It Xo .Nm .Cm rename .Op Fl f .Ar filesystem Ns | Ns Ar volume Ns | Ns Ar snapshot .Ar filesystem Ns | Ns Ar volume Ns | Ns Ar snapshot .Xc .It Xo .Nm .Cm rename .Op Fl f .Fl p .Ar filesystem Ns | Ns Ar volume .Ar filesystem Ns | Ns Ar volume .Xc .It Xo .Nm .Cm rename .Fl u .Op Fl p .Ar filesystem filesystem .Xc .Pp Renames the given dataset. The new target can be located anywhere in the .Tn ZFS hierarchy, with the exception of snapshots. Snapshots can only be renamed within the parent file system or volume. When renaming a snapshot, the parent file system of the snapshot does not need to be specified as part of the second argument. Renamed file systems can inherit new mount points, in which case they are unmounted and remounted at the new mount point. .Bl -tag -width indent .It Fl p Creates all the nonexistent parent datasets. Datasets created in this manner are automatically mounted according to the .Sy mountpoint property inherited from their parent. .It Fl u Do not remount file systems during rename. If a file system's .Sy mountpoint property is set to .Cm legacy or .Cm none , file system is not unmounted even if this option is not given. .It Fl f Force unmount any filesystems that need to be unmounted in the process. This flag has no effect if used together with the .Fl u flag. .El .It Xo .Nm .Cm rename .Fl r .Ar snapshot snapshot .Xc .Pp Recursively rename the snapshots of all descendent datasets. Snapshots are the only dataset that can be renamed recursively. .It Xo .Nm .Cm list .Op Fl r Ns | Ns Fl d Ar depth .Op Fl Hp .Op Fl o Ar property Ns Oo , Ns Ar property Oc Ns ... .Op Fl t Ar type Ns Oo , Ns Ar type Oc Ns ... .Oo Fl s Ar property Oc Ns ... .Oo Fl S Ar property Oc Ns ... .Ar filesystem Ns | Ns Ar volume Ns | Ns Ar snapshot Ns ... .Xc .Pp Lists the property information for the given datasets in tabular form. If specified, you can list property information by the absolute pathname or the relative pathname. By default, all file systems and volumes are displayed. Snapshots are displayed if the .Sy listsnaps property is .Cm on (the default is .Cm off ) . The following fields are displayed, .Sy name , used , available , referenced , mountpoint . .Bl -tag -width indent .It Fl r Recursively display any children of the dataset on the command line. .It Fl d Ar depth Recursively display any children of the dataset, limiting the recursion to .Ar depth . A depth of .Sy 1 will display only the dataset and its direct children. .It Fl H Used for scripting mode. Do not print headers and separate fields by a single tab instead of arbitrary white space. .It Fl p Display numbers in parsable (exact) values. .It Fl o Ar property Ns Oo , Ns Ar property Oc Ns ... A comma-separated list of properties to display. The property must be: .Bl -bullet -offset 2n .It One of the properties described in the .Qq Sx Native Properties section .It A user property .It The value .Cm name to display the dataset name .It The value .Cm space to display space usage properties on file systems and volumes. This is a shortcut for specifying .Fl o .Sy name,avail,used,usedsnap,usedds,usedrefreserv,usedchild .Fl t .Sy filesystem,volume syntax. .El .It Fl t Ar type Ns Oo , Ns Ar type Oc Ns ... A comma-separated list of types to display, where .Ar type is one of .Sy filesystem , snapshot , snap , volume , bookmark , No or Sy all . For example, specifying .Fl t Cm snapshot displays only snapshots. .It Fl s Ar property A property for sorting the output by column in ascending order based on the value of the property. The property must be one of the properties described in the .Qq Sx Properties section, or the special value .Cm name to sort by the dataset name. Multiple properties can be specified at one time using multiple .Fl s property options. Multiple .Fl s options are evaluated from left to right in decreasing order of importance. .Pp The following is a list of sorting criteria: .Bl -bullet -offset 2n .It Numeric types sort in numeric order. .It String types sort in alphabetical order. .It Types inappropriate for a row sort that row to the literal bottom, regardless of the specified ordering. .It If no sorting options are specified the existing behavior of .Qq Nm Cm list is preserved. .El .It Fl S Ar property Same as the .Fl s option, but sorts by property in descending order. .El .It Xo .Nm .Cm set .Ar property Ns = Ns Ar value Oo Ar property Ns = Ns Ar value Oc Ns ... .Ar filesystem Ns | Ns Ar volume Ns | Ns Ar snapshot .Xc .Pp Sets the property or list of properties to the given value(s) for each dataset. Only some properties can be edited. See the "Properties" section for more information on what properties can be set and acceptable values. Numeric values can be specified as exact values, or in a human-readable form with a suffix of .Sy B , K , M , G , T , P , E , Z (for bytes, kilobytes, megabytes, gigabytes, terabytes, petabytes, exabytes, or zettabytes, respectively). User properties can be set on snapshots.

If no datasets are specified, then the command displays properties for all datasets on the system. For each property, the following columns are displayed: .Pp .Bl -hang -width "property" -offset indent -compact .It name Dataset name .It property Property name .It value Property value .It source Property source. Can either be local, default, temporary, inherited, received, or none (\&-). .El .Pp All columns except the .Sy RECEIVED column are displayed by default. The columns to display can be specified by using the .Fl o option. This command takes a comma-separated list of properties as described in the .Qq Sx Native Properties and .Qq Sx User Properties sections. .Pp The special value .Cm all can be used to display all properties that apply to the given dataset's type (filesystem, volume, snapshot, or bookmark). .Bl -tag -width indent .It Fl r Recursively display properties for any children. .It Fl d Ar depth Recursively display any children of the dataset, limiting the recursion to .Ar depth . A depth of .Sy 1 will display only the dataset and its direct children. .It Fl H Display output in a form more easily parsed by scripts.

A comma-separated list of columns to display. Supported values are .Sy name,property,value,received,source . Default values are .Sy name,property,value,source . The keyword .Cm all specifies all columns. .It Fl t Ar type Ns Oo , Ns Ar type Oc Ns ... A comma-separated list of types to display, where .Ar type is one of .Sy filesystem , snapshot , volume , No or Sy all . For example, specifying .Fl t Cm snapshot displays only snapshots. .It Fl s Ar source Ns Oo , Ns Ar source Oc Ns ... A comma-separated list of sources to display.

If a full stream is received, then a new file system is created as well. Streams are created using the .Qq Nm Cm send subcommand, which by default creates a full stream. .Qq Nm Cm recv can be used as an alias for .Qq Nm Cm receive . .Pp If an incremental stream is received, then the destination file system must already exist, and its most recent snapshot must match the incremental stream's source. For .Sy zvol Ns s, the destination device link is destroyed and recreated, which means the .Sy zvol cannot be accessed during the .Sy receive operation. .Pp When a snapshot replication package stream that is generated by using the .Qq Nm Cm send Fl R command is received, any snapshots that do not exist on the sending location are destroyed by using the .Qq Nm Cm destroy Fl d command. .Pp The name of the snapshot (and file system, if a full stream is received) that this subcommand creates depends on the argument type and the .Fl d or .Fl e option. .Pp If the argument is a snapshot name, the specified .Ar snapshot is created. If the argument is a file system or volume name, a snapshot with the same name as the sent snapshot is created within the specified .Ar filesystem or .Ar volume . If the .Fl d or .Fl e option is specified, the snapshot name is determined by appending the sent snapshot's name to the specified .Ar filesystem . If the .Fl d option is specified, all but the pool name of the sent snapshot path is appended (for example, .Sy b/c@1 appended from sent snapshot .Sy a/b/c@1 ) , and if the .Fl e option is specified, only the tail of the sent snapshot path is appended (for example, .Sy c@1 appended from sent snapshot .Sy a/b/c@1 ) .

This can be useful in conjunction with the .Fl v option to verify the name the receive operation would use. .It Fl o Sy origin Ns = Ns Ar snapshot Forces the stream to be received as a clone of the given snapshot. If the stream is a full send stream, this will create the filesystem described by the stream as a clone of the specified snapshot. Which snapshot was specified will not affect the success or failure of the receive, as long as the snapshot does exist. If the stream is an incremental send stream, all the normal verification will be performed. .It Fl F Force a rollback of the file system to the most recent snapshot before performing the receive operation. If receiving an incremental replication stream (for example, one generated by .Qq Nm Cm send Fl R Bro Fl i | Fl I Brc ) , destroy snapshots and file systems that do not exist on the sending side. .It Fl s If the receive is interrupted, save the partially received state, rather than deleting it. Interruption may be due to premature termination of the stream .Po e.g. due to network failure or failure of the remote system if the stream is being read over a network connection .Pc , a checksum error in the stream, termination of the .Nm zfs Cm receive process, or unclean shutdown of the system. .Pp The receive can be resumed with a stream generated by .Nm zfs Cm send Fl t Ar token , where the .Ar token is the value of the .Sy receive_resume_token property of the filesystem or volume which is received into. .Pp To use this flag, the storage pool must have the .Sy extensible_dataset feature enabled.
