Description
Originally filed by Matt Ahrens:
When recovering a corrupt pool we are sometimes able to open the pool read-only and then copy the data off the corrupt pool into a new pool. We would like to use zfs send to do copy the data, but we can only send snapshots, not filesystems, and we can't create a snapshot because the pool is readonly. The workaround would be to use zfs send to copy the snapshots, and then rsync to get the data from the filesystem. This would roughly double the amount of time that the recover takes, as rsync will need to read all the already-copied data from both pools to determine which blocks are new.
