058ac9ba 272.SH DESCRIPTION
058ac9ba 273.LP
2d1b7b0b 274The \fBzfs\fR command configures \fBZFS\fR datasets within a \fBZFS\fR storage pool, as described in \fBzpool\fR(8). A dataset is identified by a unique path within the \fBZFS\fR namespace. For example:
058ac9ba
BB
275.sp
276.in +2
277.nf
278pool/{filesystem,volume,snapshot}
279.fi
280.in -2
281.sp
282
283.sp
284.LP
285where the maximum length of a dataset name is \fBMAXNAMELEN\fR (256 bytes).
286.sp
287.LP
288A dataset can be one of the following:

058ac9ba
BB
293.ad
294.sp .6
295.RS 4n
296A \fBZFS\fR dataset of type \fBfilesystem\fR can be mounted within the standard system namespace and behaves like other file systems. While \fBZFS\fR file systems are designed to be \fBPOSIX\fR 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.

058ac9ba 330.SS "ZFS File System Hierarchy"
058ac9ba
BB
331.LP
332A \fBZFS\fR storage pool is a logical collection of devices that provide space for datasets. A storage pool is also the root of the \fBZFS\fR file system hierarchy.
333.sp
334.LP
2d1b7b0b 335The 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 \fBzpool\fR(8) command.
058ac9ba
BB
336.sp
337.LP
2d1b7b0b 338See \fBzpool\fR(8) for more information on creating and administering pools.
058ac9ba 339.SS "Snapshots"
058ac9ba
BB
340.LP
341A 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.
342.sp
343.LP
d17eab9c 344Snapshots can have arbitrary names. Snapshots of volumes can be cloned or rolled back. Visibility is determined by the \fBsnapdev\fR property of the parent volume.
058ac9ba
BB
345.sp
346.LP
347File system snapshots can be accessed under the \fB\&.zfs/snapshot\fR 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 \fB\&.zfs\fR directory can be controlled by the \fBsnapdir\fR property.
b467db45
TF
348.SS "Bookmarks"
349.LP
350A bookmark is like a snapshot, a read-only copy of a file system or volume. Bookmarks can be created extremely quickly, compared to snapshots, and they consume no additional space within the pool. Bookmarks can also have arbitrary names, much like snapshots.
351.sp
352.LP
353Unlike snapshots, bookmarks can not be accessed through the filesystem in any way. From a storage standpoint a bookmark just provides a way to reference when a snapshot was created as a distinct object. Bookmarks are initially tied to a snapshot, not the filesystem/volume, and they will survive if the snapshot itself is destroyed. Since they are very light weight there's little incentive to destroy them.
058ac9ba 354.SS "Clones"
058ac9ba
BB
355.LP
356A 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.
357.sp
358.LP
359Clones 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 \fBorigin\fR property exposes this dependency, and the \fBdestroy\fR command lists any such dependencies, if they exist.
360.sp
361.LP
362The clone parent-child dependency relationship can be reversed by using the \fBpromote\fR 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.
363.SS "Mount Points"
058ac9ba 364.LP
9a616b5d 365Creating a \fBZFS\fR file system is a simple operation, so the number of file systems per system is likely to be numerous. To cope with this, \fBZFS\fR automatically manages mounting and unmounting file systems without the need to edit the \fB/etc/fstab\fR file. All automatically managed file systems are mounted by \fBZFS\fR at boot time.
058ac9ba
BB
366.sp
367.LP
368By default, file systems are mounted under \fB/\fIpath\fR\fR, where \fIpath\fR is the name of the file system in the \fBZFS\fR namespace. Directories are created and destroyed as needed.
369.sp
370.LP
9a616b5d 371A file system can also have a mount point set in the \fBmountpoint\fR property. This directory is created as needed, and \fBZFS\fR automatically mounts the file system when the \fBzfs mount -a\fR command is invoked (without editing \fB/etc/fstab\fR). The \fBmountpoint\fR property can be inherited, so if \fBpool/home\fR has a mount point of \fB/export/stuff\fR, then \fBpool/home/user\fR automatically inherits a mount point of \fB/export/stuff/user\fR.
058ac9ba
BB
372.sp
373.LP
374A file system \fBmountpoint\fR property of \fBnone\fR prevents the file system from being mounted.
375.sp
376.LP
9a616b5d 377If needed, \fBZFS\fR file systems can also be managed with traditional tools (\fBmount\fR, \fBumount\fR, \fB/etc/fstab\fR). If a file system's mount point is set to \fBlegacy\fR, \fBZFS\fR makes no attempt to manage the file system, and the administrator is responsible for mounting and unmounting the file system.
c8f25918 378.SS "Deduplication"
c8f25918
KA
379.LP
380Deduplication is the process for removing redundant data at the block-level, reducing the total amount of data stored. If a file system has the \fBdedup\fR property enabled, duplicate data blocks are removed synchronously. The result is that only unique data is stored and common components are shared among files.
971808ec
TF
381.sp
382\fBWARNING: DO NOT ENABLE DEDUPLICATION UNLESS YOU NEED IT AND KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU ARE DOING!\fR
383.sp
7e0754c6 384Deduplicating data is a very resource-intensive operation. It is generally recommended that you have \fIat least\fR 1.25 GiB of RAM per 1 TiB of storage when you enable deduplication. But calculating the exact requirements is a somewhat complicated affair.
971808ec
TF
385.sp
386Enabling deduplication on an improperly-designed system will result in extreme performance issues (extremely slow filesystem and snapshot deletions etc.) and can potentially lead to data loss (i.e. unimportable pool due to memory exhaustion) if your system is not built for this purpose. Deduplication affects the processing power (CPU), disks (and the controller) as well as primary (real) memory.
387.sp
388Before creating a pool with deduplication enabled, ensure that you have planned your hardware requirements appropriately and implemented appropriate recovery practices, such as regular backups.
389.sp
390Unless necessary, deduplication should NOT be enabled on a system. Instead, consider using \fIcompression=lz4\fR, as a less resource-intensive alternative.

391.SS "Properties"
392.sp
058ac9ba 393.LP
879dbef0 394Properties are divided into two types: native properties and user-defined (or "user") properties. Native properties either export internal statistics or control \fBZFS\fR behavior. User properties have no effect on \fBZFS\fR behavior, but you can use them to annotate datasets and snapshots in a way that is meaningful in your environment.
058ac9ba
BB
395.sp

fdbaf44f 606The 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.

fdbaf44f 608The used space of a snapshot (see the "Snapshots" section) is space that is referenced exclusively by this snapshot. If this snapshot is destroyed, the amount of \fBused\fR space will be freed. Space that is shared by multiple snapshots isn't accounted for in this metric. When a snapshot is destroyed, space that was previously shared with this snapshot can become unique to snapshots adjacent to it, thus changing the used space of those snapshots.

842If this property is set to \fBoff\fR, the file system cannot be mounted, and is ignored by \fBzfs mount -a\fR. Setting this property to \fBoff\fR is similar to setting the \fBmountpoint\fR property to \fBnone\fR, except that the dataset still has a normal \fBmountpoint\fR property, which can be inherited. Setting this property to \fBoff\fR allows datasets to be used solely as a mechanism to inherit properties. One example of setting \fBcanmount=\fR\fBoff\fR is to have two datasets with the same \fBmountpoint\fR, so that the children of both datasets appear in the same directory, but might have different inherited characteristics.

1510File names are always stored unmodified; names are normalized as part of any comparison process. Thus, \fBformC\fR and \fBformD\fR are equivalent, as are \fBformKC\fR and \fBformKD\fR.

1511.\" unicode.org says it's possible to quickly detect if a string is already in a given form. Since most text (basically everything but OS X) is already in NFC, this means formC could potentially be made faster. But the additional complexity probably isn't worth the likely undetectable in practice speed improvement.
1512.sp

2d1b7b0b 1591When a file system is mounted, either through \fBmount\fR(8) for legacy mounts or the \fBzfs mount\fR command for normal file systems, its mount options are set according to its properties. The correlation between properties and mount options is as follows:

1611In addition, these options can be set on a per-mount basis using the \fB-o\fR option, without affecting the property that is stored on disk. The values specified on the command line override the values stored in the dataset. The \fB-nosuid\fR option is an alias for \fBnodevices,nosetuid\fR. These properties are reported as "temporary" by the \fBzfs get\fR command. If the properties are changed while the dataset is mounted, the new setting overrides any temporary settings.
1612.SS "User Properties"
058ac9ba 1613.LP
879dbef0 1614In addition to the standard native properties, \fBZFS\fR supports arbitrary user properties. User properties have no effect on \fBZFS\fR behavior, but applications or administrators can use them to annotate datasets (file systems, volumes, and snapshots). Unlike native properties, user properties are editable on snapshots.
058ac9ba
BB
1615.sp
1616.LP
1617User property names must contain a colon (\fB:\fR) character to distinguish them from native properties. They may contain lowercase letters, numbers, and the following punctuation characters: colon (\fB:\fR), dash (\fB-\fR), period (\fB\&.\fR), and underscore (\fB_\fR). The expected convention is that the property name is divided into two portions such as \fImodule\fR\fB:\fR\fIproperty\fR, but this namespace is not enforced by \fBZFS\fR. User property names can be at most 256 characters, and cannot begin with a dash (\fB-\fR).
1618.sp
1619.LP
879dbef0 1620When making programmatic use of user properties, it is strongly suggested to use a reversed \fBDNS\fR domain name for the \fImodule\fR component of property names to reduce the chance that two independently-developed packages use the same property name for different purposes. For example, property names beginning with \fBcom.sun\fR. are reserved for definition by Oracle Corporation (which acquired Sun Microsystems).
058ac9ba
BB
1621.sp
1622.LP
9bb3e153 1623The values of user properties are arbitrary strings, are always inherited, and are never validated. All of the commands that operate on properties (\fBzfs list\fR, \fBzfs get\fR, \fBzfs set\fR, and so forth) can be used to manipulate both native properties and user properties. Use the \fBzfs inherit\fR 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.

2970Creates a snapshot whose contents are as specified in the stream provided on standard input. If a full stream is received, then a new file system is created as well.
