[OpenIndiana-discuss] Antwort: Transferring everything in one zpool to be a, subtree in another larger zpool (Hans J. Albertsson)

[Hans J. Albertsson]

mbuffer isn't included in FreeNAS.

It IS available for FreeBSD, but I don't know if that version will 
behave responsibly in FreeNAS.

FreeNAS devs say "mbuffer won't be included in FreeNAS because we 
already do proper buffering via dd."

Would dd work for buffering in Solaris/OI??
