Operating Systems Solaris Restore of Netapp FC lun targets used as the disks for a zpool with exported zfs file systems Post 302947612 by os2mac on Friday 19th of June 2015 01:33:58 PM

Why we are using storage snaps instead of zfs snaps

The reasons are numerous and lengthly, but the TL,DR is infrastructure and DR.

With reference to your reboot comment: This is a zpool with exported datasets to a non-global zone. You can't export the zpool unless the dataset isn't being used (i.e. the zone with the dataset assigned is offline) and thus the requirement for the zone reboot.

I'm looking into replacating the functionality of time-slider with scripts and crons.
