272 storage pool, as described in
274 A dataset is identified by a unique path within the
276 namespace. For example:
277 .Bd -ragged -offset 4n
278 .No pool/ Ns Brq filesystem,volume,snapshot
281 where the maximum length of a dataset name is
285 A dataset can be one of the following:
292 can be mounted within the standard system namespace and behaves like other file
295 file systems are designed to be
297 compliant, known issues exist that prevent compliance in some cases.
298 Applications that depend on standards conformance might fail due to nonstandard
299 behavior when checking file system free space.
301 A logical volume exported as a raw or block device. This type of dataset should
302 only be used under special circumstances. File systems are typically used in
305 A read-only version of a file system or volume at a given point in time. It is
311 .Ss ZFS File System Hierarchy
314 storage pool is a logical collection of devices that provide space for
315 datasets. A storage pool is also the root of the
317 file system hierarchy.
319 The root of the pool can be accessed as a file system, such as mounting and
320 unmounting, taking snapshots, and setting properties. The physical storage
321 characteristics, however, are managed by the
327 for more information on creating and administering pools.
329 A snapshot is a read-only copy of a file system or volume. Snapshots can be
330 created extremely quickly, and initially consume no additional space within the
331 pool. As data within the active dataset changes, the snapshot consumes more
332 data than would otherwise be shared with the active dataset.
334 Snapshots can have arbitrary names. Snapshots of volumes can be cloned or
335 rolled back, but cannot be accessed independently.
337 File system snapshots can be accessed under the
339 directory in the root of the file system. Snapshots are automatically mounted
340 on demand and may be unmounted at regular intervals. The visibility of the
342 directory can be controlled by the
346 A clone is a writable volume or file system whose initial contents are the same
347 as another dataset. As with snapshots, creating a clone is nearly
348 instantaneous, and initially consumes no additional space.
350 Clones can only be created from a snapshot. When a snapshot is cloned, it
351 creates an implicit dependency between the parent and child. Even though the
352 clone is created somewhere else in the dataset hierarchy, the original snapshot
353 cannot be destroyed as long as a clone exists. The
355 property exposes this dependency, and the
357 command lists any such dependencies, if they exist.
359 The clone parent-child dependency relationship can be reversed by using the
361 subcommand. This causes the "origin" file system to become a clone of the
362 specified file system, which makes it possible to destroy the file system that
363 the clone was created from.
367 file system is a simple operation, so the number of file systems per system is
368 likely to be numerous. To cope with this,
370 automatically manages mounting and unmounting file systems without the need to
373 file. All automatically managed file systems are mounted by
377 By default, file systems are mounted under
381 is the name of the file system in the
383 namespace. Directories are created and destroyed as needed.
385 A file system can also have a mount point set in the
387 property. This directory is created as needed, and
389 automatically mounts the file system when the
391 command is invoked (without editing
395 property can be inherited, so if
401 automatically inherits a mount point of
408 prevents the file system from being mounted.
412 file systems can also be managed with traditional tools
413 .Pq Xr mount 8 , Xr umount 8 , Xr fstab 5 .
414 If a file system's mount point is set to
417 makes no attempt to manage the file system, and the administrator is
418 responsible for mounting and unmounting the file system.
421 dataset can be attached to a jail by using the
423 subcommand. You cannot attach a dataset to one jail and the children of the
424 same dataset to another jails. To allow management of the dataset from within
427 property has to be set and the jail needs access to the
431 property cannot be changed from within a jail. See
433 for information on how to allow mounting
435 datasets from within a jail.
438 dataset can be detached from a jail using the
442 After a dataset is attached to a jail and the jailed property is set, a jailed
443 file system cannot be mounted outside the jail, since the jail administrator
444 might have set the mount point to an unacceptable value.
446 Deduplication is the process for removing redundant data at the block-level,
447 reducing the total amount of data stored. If a file system has the
449 property enabled, duplicate data blocks are removed synchronously. The result
450 is that only unique data is stored and common components are shared among
452 .Ss Native Properties
453 Properties are divided into two types, native properties and user-defined (or
454 "user") properties. Native properties either export internal statistics or
457 behavior. In addition, native properties are either editable or read-only. User
458 properties have no effect on
460 behavior, but you can use them to annotate datasets in a way that is meaningful
461 in your environment. For more information about user properties, see the
462 .Qq Sx User Properties
465 Every dataset has a set of properties that export statistics about the dataset
466 as well as control various behaviors. Properties are inherited from the parent
467 unless overridden by the child. Some properties apply only to certain types of
468 datasets (file systems, volumes, or snapshots).
470 The values of numeric properties can be specified using human-readable suffixes
472 .Sy k , KB , M , Gb ,
475 for zettabyte). The following are all valid (and equal) specifications:
476 .Bd -ragged -offset 4n
480 The values of non-numeric properties are case sensitive and must be lowercase,
482 .Sy mountpoint , sharenfs , No and Sy sharesmb .
484 The following native properties consist of read-only statistics about the
485 dataset. These properties can be neither set, nor inherited. Native properties
486 apply to all dataset types unless otherwise noted.
489 The amount of space available to the dataset and all its children, assuming
490 that there is no other activity in the pool. Because space is shared within a
491 pool, availability can be limited by any number of factors, including physical
492 pool size, quotas, reservations, or other datasets within the pool.
494 This property can also be referred to by its shortened column name,
497 For non-snapshots, the compression ratio achieved for the
499 space of this dataset, expressed as a multiplier. The
501 property includes descendant datasets, and, for clones, does not include
502 the space shared with the origin snapshot. For snapshots, the
506 property. Compression can be turned on by running:
507 .Qq Nm Cm set compression=on Ar dataset
511 The time this dataset was created.
513 For snapshots, this property is a comma-separated list of filesystems or
514 volumes which are clones of this snapshot. The clones'
516 property is this snapshot. If the
518 property is not empty, then this snapshot can not be destroyed (even with the
526 if the snapshot has been marked for deferred destroy by using the
528 command. Otherwise, the property is
530 .It Sy logicalreferenced
531 The amount of space that is
533 accessible by this dataset.
537 The logical space ignores the effect of the
541 properties, giving a quantity closer to the amount of data that applications
543 However, it does include space consumed by metadata.
545 This property can also be referred to by its shortened column name,
548 The amount of space that is
550 consumed by this dataset and all its descendents.
554 The logical space ignores the effect of the
558 properties, giving a quantity closer to the amount of data that applications
561 This property can also be referred to by its shortened column name,
564 For file systems, indicates whether the file system is currently mounted. This
565 property can be either
570 For cloned file systems or volumes, the snapshot from which the clone was
571 created. See also the
575 The amount of data that is accessible by this dataset, which may or may not be
576 shared with other datasets in the pool. When a snapshot or clone is created, it
577 initially references the same amount of space as the file system or snapshot it
578 was created from, since its contents are identical.
580 This property can also be referred to by its shortened column name,
582 .It Sy refcompressratio
583 The compression ratio achieved for the
585 space of this dataset, expressed as a multiplier. See also the
590 .Sy filesystem , volume , No or Sy snapshot .
592 The amount of space consumed by this dataset and all its descendents. This is
593 the value that is checked against this dataset's quota and reservation. The
594 space used does not include this dataset's reservation, but does take into
595 account the reservations of any descendent datasets. The amount of space that a
596 dataset consumes from its parent, as well as the amount of space that are freed
597 if this dataset is recursively destroyed, is the greater of its space used and
600 When snapshots (see the
602 section) are created, their space is
603 initially shared between the snapshot and the file system, and possibly with
604 previous snapshots. As the file system changes, space that was previously
605 shared becomes unique to the snapshot, and counted in the snapshot's space
606 used. Additionally, deleting snapshots can increase the amount of space unique
607 to (and used by) other snapshots.
609 The amount of space used, available, or referenced does not take into account
610 pending changes. Pending changes are generally accounted for within a few
611 seconds. Committing a change to a disk using
615 does not necessarily guarantee that the space usage information is updated
620 properties decompose the
622 properties into the various reasons that space is used. Specifically,
624 .Sy usedbysnapshots + usedbydataset + usedbychildren + usedbyrefreservation .
625 These properties are only available for datasets created
628 pool version 13 pools and higher.
629 .It Sy usedbysnapshots
630 The amount of space consumed by snapshots of this dataset. In particular, it is
631 the amount of space that would be freed if all of this dataset's snapshots were
632 destroyed. Note that this is not simply the sum of the snapshots'
634 properties because space can be shared by multiple snapshots.
636 The amount of space used by this dataset itself, which would be freed if the
637 dataset were destroyed (after first removing any
639 and destroying any necessary snapshots or descendents).
640 .It Sy usedbychildren
641 The amount of space used by children of this dataset, which would be freed if
642 all the dataset's children were destroyed.
643 .It Sy usedbyrefreservation
644 The amount of space used by a
646 set on this dataset, which would be freed if the
649 .It Sy userused@ Ns Ar user
650 The amount of space consumed by the specified user in this dataset. Space is
651 charged to the owner of each file, as displayed by
653 The amount of space charged is displayed by
659 subcommand for more information.
661 Unprivileged users can access only their own space usage. The root user, or a
662 user who has been granted the

688 .It Sy groupused@ Ns Ar group
689 The amount of space consumed by the specified group in this dataset. Space is
690 charged to the group of each file, as displayed by
693 .Sy userused@ Ns Ar user
694 property for more information.
696 Unprivileged users can only access their own groups' space usage. The root
697 user, or a user who has been granted the
701 can access all groups' usage.
702 .It Sy volblocksize Ns = Ns Ar blocksize
703 For volumes, specifies the block size of the volume. The
705 cannot be changed once the volume has been written, so it should be set at
706 volume creation time. The default
708 for volumes is 8 Kbytes. Any
709 power of 2 from 512 bytes to 128 Kbytes is valid.
711 This property can also be referred to by its shortened column name,
716 space written to this dataset since the previous snapshot.
717 .It Sy written@ Ns Ar snapshot
720 space written to this dataset since the specified snapshot. This is the space
721 that is referenced by this dataset but was not referenced by the specified

728 in which case it will be interpreted as a snapshot in the same filesystem as
731 may be a full snapshot name
732 .Pq Em filesystem@snapshot ,
733 which for clones may be a snapshot in the origin's filesystem (or the origin of
734 the origin's filesystem, etc).
737 The following native properties can be used to change the behavior of a

763 entries that specify "deny" permissions. The property value
765 (the default) removes the
771 entry is inherited. A file system with an
775 inherits all inheritable
777 entries without any modifications made to the
779 entries when they are inherited. A file system with an

797 mode from the application.
798 .It Sy aclmode Ns = Ns Cm discard | groupmask | passthrough | restricted
803 A file system with an
807 (the default) deletes all
809 entries that do not represent the mode of the file. An
813 reduces permissions granted in all
817 such that they are no greater than the group permissions specified by

851 you must first remove all
853 entries which do not represent the current mode.
854 .It Sy atime Ns = Ns Cm on | off
855 Controls whether the access time for files is updated when they are read.
856 Turning this property off avoids producing write traffic when reading files and
857 can result in significant performance gains, though it might confuse mailers
858 and other similar utilities. The default value is
860 .It Sy canmount Ns = Ns Cm on | off | noauto
861 If this property is set to
863 the file system cannot be mounted, and is ignored by
864 .Qq Nm Cm mount Fl a .
865 Setting this property to
867 is similar to setting the
871 except that the dataset still has a normal
873 property, which can be inherited. Setting this property to
875 allows datasets to be used solely as a mechanism to inherit properties. One
877 .Sy canmount Ns = Ns Cm off
878 is to have two datasets with the same
880 so that the children of both datasets appear in the same directory, but might
881 have different inherited characteristics.
885 value is set, a dataset can only be mounted and unmounted explicitly. The
886 dataset is not mounted automatically when the dataset is created or imported,
887 nor is it mounted by the
889 command or unmounted by the
890 .Qq Nm Cm umount Fl a
893 This property is not inherited.
894 .It Sy checksum Ns = Ns Cm on | off | fletcher2 | fletcher4 | sha256 | noparity
895 Controls the checksum used to verify data integrity. The default value is
897 which automatically selects an appropriate algorithm (currently,
899 but this may change in future releases). The value
901 disables integrity checking on user data.
905 disables integrity but also disables maintaining parity for user data. This
906 setting is used internally by a dump device residing on a RAID-Z pool and should
907 not be used by any other dataset.
908 Disabling checksums is
910 a recommended practice.
911 .It Sy compression Ns = Ns Cm on | off | lzjb | gzip | gzip- Ns Ar N | zle | Cm lz4
912 Controls the compression algorithm used for this dataset. The
914 compression algorithm is optimized for performance while providing decent data
915 compression. Setting compression to
919 compression algorithm. The
921 compression algorithm uses the same compression as the
923 command. You can specify the
925 level by using the value
929 is an integer from 1 (fastest) to 9 (best compression ratio). Currently,
933 (which is also the default for
937 compression algorithm compresses runs of zeros.
941 compression algorithm is a high-performance replacement
944 algorithm. It features significantly faster
945 compression and decompression, as well as a moderately higher
946 compression ratio than
948 but can only be used on pools with
955 for details on ZFS feature flags and the
959 This property can also be referred to by its shortened column name
961 Changing this property affects only newly-written data.
962 .It Sy copies Ns = Ns Cm 1 | 2 | 3
963 Controls the number of copies of data stored for this dataset. These copies are
964 in addition to any redundancy provided by the pool, for example, mirroring or
965 RAID-Z. The copies are stored on different disks, if possible. The space used
966 by multiple copies is charged to the associated file and dataset, changing the
968 property and counting against quotas and reservations.
970 Changing this property only affects newly-written data. Therefore, set this
971 property at file system creation time by using the
972 .Fl o Cm copies= Ns Ar N
974 .It Sy dedup Ns = Ns Cm on | off | verify | sha256 Ns Op Cm ,verify
975 Configures deduplication for a dataset. The default value is
977 The default deduplication checksum is
979 (this may change in the future).
982 is enabled, the checksum defined here overrides the
984 property. Setting the value to
986 has the same effect as the setting
992 will do a byte-to-byte comparsion in case of two blocks having the same
993 signature to make sure the block contents are identical.
994 .It Sy devices Ns = Ns Cm on | off
997 property is currently not supported on
999 .It Sy exec Ns = Ns Cm on | off
1000 Controls whether processes can be executed from within this file system. The
1003 .It Sy mlslabel Ns = Ns Ar label | Cm none
1006 property is currently not supported on
1008 .It Sy mountpoint Ns = Ns Ar path | Cm none | legacy
1009 Controls the mount point used for this file system. See the
1011 section for more information on how this property is used.
1015 property is changed for a file system, the file system and any children that
1016 inherit the mount point are unmounted. If the new value is
1018 then they remain unmounted. Otherwise, they are automatically remounted in the
1019 new location if the property was previously
1023 or if they were mounted before the property was changed. In addition, any
1024 shared file systems are unshared and shared in the new location.
1025 .It Sy nbmand Ns = Ns Cm on | off
1028 property is currently not supported on
1030 .It Sy primarycache Ns = Ns Cm all | none | metadata
1031 Controls what is cached in the primary cache (ARC). If this property is set to
1033 then both user data and metadata is cached. If this property is set to
1035 then neither user data nor metadata is cached. If this property is set to
1037 then only metadata is cached. The default value is
1039 .It Sy quota Ns = Ns Ar size | Cm none
1040 Limits the amount of space a dataset and its descendents can consume. This
1041 property enforces a hard limit on the amount of space used. This includes all
1042 space consumed by descendents, including file systems and snapshots. Setting a
1043 quota on a descendent of a dataset that already has a quota does not override
1044 the ancestor's quota, but rather imposes an additional limit.
1046 Quotas cannot be set on volumes, as the
1048 property acts as an implicit quota.
1049 .It Sy userquota@ Ns Ar user Ns = Ns Ar size | Cm none
1050 Limits the amount of space consumed by the specified user.
1055 space calculation does not include space that is used by descendent datasets,
1056 such as snapshots and clones. User space consumption is identified by the
1057 .Sy userspace@ Ns Ar user
1060 Enforcement of user quotas may be delayed by several seconds. This delay means
1061 that a user might exceed their quota before the system notices that they are
1062 over quota and begins to refuse additional writes with the
1064 error message. See the
1066 subcommand for more information.
1068 Unprivileged users can only access their own groups' space usage. The root

1103 .It Sy readonly Ns = Ns Cm on | off
1104 Controls whether this dataset can be modified. The default value is
1106 .It Sy recordsize Ns = Ns Ar size
1107 Specifies a suggested block size for files in the file system. This property is
1108 designed solely for use with database workloads that access files in fixed-size
1111 automatically tunes block sizes according to internal algorithms optimized for
1112 typical access patterns.
1114 For databases that create very large files but access them in small random
1115 chunks, these algorithms may be suboptimal. Specifying a
1117 greater than or equal to the record size of the database can result in
1118 significant performance gains. Use of this property for general purpose file
1119 systems is strongly discouraged, and may adversely affect performance.
1121 The size specified must be a power of two greater than or equal to 512 and less
1122 than or equal to 128 Kbytes.
1124 Changing the file system's
1126 affects only files created afterward; existing files are unaffected.
1128 This property can also be referred to by its shortened column name,
1130 .It Sy refquota Ns = Ns Ar size | Cm none
1131 Limits the amount of space a dataset can consume. This property enforces a hard
1132 limit on the amount of space used. This hard limit does not include space used
1133 by descendents, including file systems and snapshots.
1134 .It Sy refreservation Ns = Ns Ar size | Cm none
1135 The minimum amount of space guaranteed to a dataset, not including its
1136 descendents. When the amount of space used is below this value, the dataset is
1137 treated as if it were taking up the amount of space specified by
1138 .Sy refreservation .
1141 reservation is accounted for in the parent datasets' space used, and counts
1142 against the parent datasets' quotas and reservations.
1146 is set, a snapshot is only allowed if there is enough free pool space outside
1147 of this reservation to accommodate the current number of "referenced" bytes in
1150 This property can also be referred to by its shortened column name,
1152 .It Sy reservation Ns = Ns Ar size | Cm none
1153 The minimum amount of space guaranteed to a dataset and its descendents. When
1154 the amount of space used is below this value, the dataset is treated as if it
1155 were taking up the amount of space specified by its reservation. Reservations
1156 are accounted for in the parent datasets' space used, and count against the
1157 parent datasets' quotas and reservations.
1159 This property can also be referred to by its shortened column name,
1161 .It Sy secondarycache Ns = Ns Cm all | none | metadata
1162 Controls what is cached in the secondary cache (L2ARC). If this property is set
1165 then both user data and metadata is cached. If this property is set to
1167 then neither user data nor metadata is cached. If this property is set to
1169 then only metadata is cached. The default value is
1171 .It Sy setuid Ns = Ns Cm on | off
1172 Controls whether the
1174 bit is respected for the file system. The default value is
1176 .It Sy sharesmb Ns = Ns Cm on | off | Ar opts
1179 property currently has no effect on
1181 .It Sy sharenfs Ns = Ns Cm on | off | Ar opts
1182 Controls whether the file system is shared via
1184 and what options are used. A file system with a

1190 Otherwise, the file system is automatically shared and unshared with the
1194 commands. If the property is set to
1198 export options are used. Otherwise,
1200 export options are equivalent to the contents of this property. The export
1201 options may be comma-separated. See
1203 for a list of valid options.

1220 will use pool log devices (if configured) to handle the requests at low
1226 will not use configured pool log devices.
1228 will instead optimize synchronous operations for global pool throughput and
1229 efficient use of resources.
1230 .It Sy snapdir Ns = Ns Cm hidden | visible
1231 Controls whether the
1233 directory is hidden or visible in the root of the file system as discussed in
1236 section. The default value is
1238 .It Sy sync Ns = Ns Cm standard | always | disabled
1239 Controls the behavior of synchronous requests (e.g.
1241 O_DSYNC). This property accepts the following values:
1242 .Bl -tag -offset 4n -width 8n
1244 This is the POSIX specified behavior of ensuring all synchronous requests are
1245 written to stable storage and all devices are flushed to ensure data is not
1246 cached by device controllers (this is the default).
1248 All file system transactions are written and flushed before their system calls
1249 return. This has a large performance penalty.
1251 Disables synchronous requests. File system transactions are only committed to
1252 stable storage periodically. This option will give the highest performance.
1253 However, it is very dangerous as
1255 would be ignoring the synchronous transaction demands of applications such as
1258 Administrators should only use this option when the risks are understood.
1260 .It Sy volsize Ns = Ns Ar size
1261 For volumes, specifies the logical size of the volume. By default, creating a
1262 volume establishes a reservation of equal size. For storage pools with a
1263 version number of 9 or higher, a
1265 is set instead. Any changes to
1267 are reflected in an equivalent change to the reservation (or
1268 .Sy refreservation ) .
1271 can only be set to a multiple of
1275 The reservation is kept equal to the volume's logical size to prevent
1276 unexpected behavior for consumers. Without the reservation, the volume could
1277 run out of space, resulting in undefined behavior or data corruption, depending
1278 on how the volume is used. These effects can also occur when the volume size is
1279 changed while it is in use (particularly when shrinking the size). Extreme care
1280 should be used when adjusting the volume size.
1282 Though not recommended, a "sparse volume" (also known as "thin provisioning")
1283 can be created by specifying the
1286 .Qq Nm Cm create Fl V
1287 command, or by changing the reservation after the volume has been created. A
1288 "sparse volume" is a volume where the reservation is less then the volume size.
1289 Consequently, writes to a sparse volume can fail with
1291 when the pool is low on space. For a sparse volume, changes to
1293 are not reflected in the reservation.

1297 property is currently not supported on
1299 .It Sy xattr Ns = Ns Cm off | on
1302 property is currently not supported on

1307 section for more information. The default value is
1311 The following three properties cannot be changed after the file system is
1312 created, and therefore, should be set when the file system is created. If the
1313 properties are not set with the
1317 commands, these properties are inherited from the parent dataset. If the parent
1318 dataset lacks these properties due to having been created prior to these
1319 features being supported, the new file system will have the default values for
1322 .It Sy casesensitivity Ns = Ns Cm sensitive | insensitive | mixed
1325 property is currently not supported on
1327 .It Sy normalization Ns = Ns Cm none | formC | formD | formKC | formKD
1328 Indicates whether the file system should perform a
1330 normalization of file names whenever two file names are compared, and which
1331 normalization algorithm should be used. File names are always stored
1332 unmodified, names are normalized as part of any comparison process. If this
1333 property is set to a legal value other than
1337 property was left unspecified, the
1339 property is automatically set to

1345 This property cannot be changed after the file system is created.
1346 .It Sy utf8only Ns = Ns Cm on | off
1347 Indicates whether the file system should reject file names that include
1348 characters that are not present in the
1350 character code set. If this property is explicitly set to
1352 the normalization property must either not be explicitly set or be set to
1354 The default value for the
1358 This property cannot be changed after the file system is created.
1362 .Sy casesensitivity , normalization , No and Sy utf8only
1363 properties are also new permissions that can be assigned to non-privileged
1366 delegated administration feature.
1367 .Ss Temporary Mount Point Properties
1368 When a file system is mounted, either through
1370 for legacy mounts or the
1372 command for normal file systems, its mount options are set according to its
1373 properties. The correlation between properties and mount options is as follows:
1374 .Bl -column -offset 4n "PROPERTY" "MOUNT OPTION"
1375 .It "PROPERTY MOUNT OPTION"
1376 .It "atime atime/noatime"
1377 .It "exec exec/noexec"
1378 .It "readonly ro/rw"
1379 .It "setuid suid/nosuid"
1382 In addition, these options can be set on a per-mount basis using the
1384 option, without affecting the property that is stored on disk. The values
1385 specified on the command line override the values stored in the dataset. These
1386 properties are reported as "temporary" by the
1388 command. If the properties are changed while the dataset is mounted, the new
1389 setting overrides any temporary settings.
1391 In addition to the standard native properties,
1393 supports arbitrary user properties. User properties have no effect on
1395 behavior, but applications or administrators can use them to annotate datasets
1396 (file systems, volumes, and snapshots).
1398 User property names must contain a colon
1400 character to distinguish them from native properties. They may contain
1401 lowercase letters, numbers, and the following punctuation characters: colon
1409 The expected convention is that the property name is divided into two portions
1411 .Em module Ns Sy \&: Ns Em property ,
1412 but this namespace is not enforced by
1414 User property names can be at most 256 characters, and cannot begin with a dash
1417 When making programmatic use of user properties, it is strongly suggested to
1422 component of property names to reduce the chance that two
1423 independently-developed packages use the same property name for different
1424 purposes. Property names beginning with
1426 are reserved for use by Sun Microsystems.
1428 The values of user properties are arbitrary strings, are always inherited, and
1429 are never validated. All of the commands that operate on properties
1436 can be used to manipulate both native properties and user properties. Use the
1438 command to clear a user property. If the property is not defined in any parent
1439 dataset, it is removed entirely. Property values are limited to 1024

1736 that the origin file system becomes a clone of the specified file system.
1738 The snapshot that was cloned, and any snapshots previous to this snapshot, are
1739 now owned by the promoted clone. The space they use moves from the origin file
1740 system to the promoted clone, so enough space must be available to accommodate
1741 these snapshots. No new space is consumed by this operation, but the space
1742 accounting is adjusted. The promoted clone must not have any conflicting
