Emergency - restore a deleted zfs snapshot
Hi, I deleted a zfs snapshot because it was as big as the original zfs. After the snapshot was removed, all the data in the original zfs is gone. How this happened? Can I restore the snapshot? Please help. Thanks a lot!

NAME
sharefs - Kernel sharetab filesystem
DESCRIPTION
The sharefs filesystem describes the state of all shares currently loaded by the kernel. It is mounted during boot time as a read-only file
at /etc/dfs/sharetab.
Filesystem contents are dynamic and reflect the current set of shares in the system. File contents are described in sharetab(4).
File contents can be modified as a result of share(1M), sharectl(1M), sharemgr(1M) and changing properties of a zfs(1M) data set.
The module may not be unloaded dynamically by the kernel.
FILES
/etc/dfs/sharetab System record of shared file systems.
