How do I create a ZFS snapshot in solaris?

petulia3478

# zfs snapshot <pool_name>@date

# zfs snapshot test_pool/fs1@080610

Check:

# zfs list -t snapshot
NAME                            USED  AVAIL  REFER  
test_pool/fs1@080610               0      -    21K  -

To include all descendents, add "-r":

# zfs snapshot -r test_pool/fs1@090610

# zfs list -t snapshot
NAME                            USED  AVAIL  REFER  MOUNTPOINT
test_pool/fs1@080610               0      -    21K  -
test_pool/fs1@090610               0      -    21K  -
test_pool/fs1/admin@090610         0      -    18K  -
test_pool/fs1/data@090610          0      -    18K  -
