315 storage pool, as described in
317 A dataset is identified by a unique path within the
319 namespace. For example:
320 .Bd -ragged -offset 4n
321 .No pool/ Ns Brq filesystem,volume,snapshot
324 where the maximum length of a dataset name is
327 and the maximum amount of nesting allowed in a path is 50 levels deep.
329 A dataset can be one of the following:
336 can be mounted within the standard system namespace and behaves like other file
339 file systems are designed to be
341 compliant, known issues exist that prevent compliance in some cases.
342 Applications that depend on standards conformance might fail due to nonstandard
343 behavior when checking file system free space.
345 A logical volume exported as a raw or block device. This type of dataset should
346 only be used under special circumstances. File systems are typically used in
349 A read-only version of a file system or volume at a given point in time. It is
355 .Ss ZFS File System Hierarchy
358 storage pool is a logical collection of devices that provide space for
359 datasets. A storage pool is also the root of the
361 file system hierarchy.
363 The root of the pool can be accessed as a file system, such as mounting and
364 unmounting, taking snapshots, and setting properties. The physical storage
365 characteristics, however, are managed by the
371 for more information on creating and administering pools.
373 A snapshot is a read-only copy of a file system or volume. Snapshots can be
374 created extremely quickly, and initially consume no additional space within the
375 pool. As data within the active dataset changes, the snapshot consumes more
376 data than would otherwise be shared with the active dataset.
378 Snapshots can have arbitrary names. Snapshots of volumes can be cloned or
379 rolled back, but cannot be accessed independently.
381 File system snapshots can be accessed under the
383 directory in the root of the file system. Snapshots are automatically mounted
384 on demand and may be unmounted at regular intervals. The visibility of the
386 directory can be controlled by the
390 A clone is a writable volume or file system whose initial contents are the same
391 as another dataset. As with snapshots, creating a clone is nearly
392 instantaneous, and initially consumes no additional space.
394 Clones can only be created from a snapshot. When a snapshot is cloned, it
395 creates an implicit dependency between the parent and child. Even though the
396 clone is created somewhere else in the dataset hierarchy, the original snapshot
397 cannot be destroyed as long as a clone exists. The
399 property exposes this dependency, and the
401 command lists any such dependencies, if they exist.
403 The clone parent-child dependency relationship can be reversed by using the
405 subcommand. This causes the "origin" file system to become a clone of the
406 specified file system, which makes it possible to destroy the file system that
407 the clone was created from.
411 file system is a simple operation, so the number of file systems per system is
412 likely to be numerous. To cope with this,
414 automatically manages mounting and unmounting file systems without the need to
417 file. All automatically managed file systems are mounted by
421 By default, file systems are mounted under
425 is the name of the file system in the
427 namespace. Directories are created and destroyed as needed.
429 A file system can also have a mount point set in the
431 property. This directory is created as needed, and
433 automatically mounts the file system when the
435 command is invoked (without editing
439 property can be inherited, so if
445 automatically inherits a mount point of
452 prevents the file system from being mounted.
456 file systems can also be managed with traditional tools
457 .Pq Xr mount 8 , Xr umount 8 , Xr fstab 5 .
458 If a file system's mount point is set to
461 makes no attempt to manage the file system, and the administrator is
462 responsible for mounting and unmounting the file system.
465 dataset can be attached to a jail by using the
467 subcommand. You cannot attach a dataset to one jail and the children of the
468 same dataset to another jail. You can also not attach the root file system
469 of the jail or any dataset which needs to be mounted before the zfs rc script
470 is run inside the jail, as it would be attached unmounted until it is
471 mounted from the rc script inside the jail. To allow management of the
472 dataset from within a jail, the
474 property has to be set and the jail needs access to the
478 property cannot be changed from within a jail. See
480 for information on how to allow mounting
482 datasets from within a jail.
485 dataset can be detached from a jail using the
489 After a dataset is attached to a jail and the jailed property is set, a jailed
490 file system cannot be mounted outside the jail, since the jail administrator
491 might have set the mount point to an unacceptable value.
493 Deduplication is the process for removing redundant data at the block-level,
494 reducing the total amount of data stored. If a file system has the
496 property enabled, duplicate data blocks are removed synchronously. The result
497 is that only unique data is stored and common components are shared among
499 .Ss Native Properties
500 Properties are divided into two types, native properties and user-defined (or
501 "user") properties. Native properties either export internal statistics or
504 behavior. In addition, native properties are either editable or read-only. User
505 properties have no effect on
507 behavior, but you can use them to annotate datasets in a way that is meaningful
508 in your environment. For more information about user properties, see the
509 .Qq Sx User Properties
512 Every dataset has a set of properties that export statistics about the dataset
513 as well as control various behaviors. Properties are inherited from the parent
514 unless overridden by the child. Some properties apply only to certain types of
515 datasets (file systems, volumes, or snapshots).
517 The values of numeric properties can be specified using human-readable suffixes
519 .Sy k , KB , M , Gb ,
522 for zettabyte). The following are all valid (and equal) specifications:
523 .Bd -ragged -offset 4n
527 The values of non-numeric properties are case sensitive and must be lowercase,
529 .Sy mountpoint , sharenfs , No and Sy sharesmb .
531 The following native properties consist of read-only statistics about the
532 dataset. These properties can be neither set, nor inherited. Native properties
533 apply to all dataset types unless otherwise noted.
536 The amount of space available to the dataset and all its children, assuming
537 that there is no other activity in the pool. Because space is shared within a
538 pool, availability can be limited by any number of factors, including physical
539 pool size, quotas, reservations, or other datasets within the pool.
541 This property can also be referred to by its shortened column name,
544 For non-snapshots, the compression ratio achieved for the
546 space of this dataset, expressed as a multiplier. The
548 property includes descendant datasets, and, for clones, does not include
549 the space shared with the origin snapshot. For snapshots, the
553 property. Compression can be turned on by running:
554 .Qq Nm Cm set compression=on Ar dataset
558 The transaction group (txg) in which the dataset was created.
559 Bookmarks have the same
561 as the snapshot they are initially tied to.
562 This property is suitable for ordering a list of snapshots,
563 e.g. for incremental send and receive.
565 The time this dataset was created.
567 For snapshots, this property is a comma-separated list of filesystems or
568 volumes which are clones of this snapshot. The clones'
570 property is this snapshot. If the
572 property is not empty, then this snapshot can not be destroyed (even with the
580 if the snapshot has been marked for deferred destroy by using the
582 command. Otherwise, the property is

599 .It Sy logicalreferenced
600 The amount of space that is
602 accessible by this dataset.
606 The logical space ignores the effect of the
610 properties, giving a quantity closer to the amount of data that applications
612 However, it does include space consumed by metadata.
614 This property can also be referred to by its shortened column name,
617 The amount of space that is
619 consumed by this dataset and all its descendents.
623 The logical space ignores the effect of the
627 properties, giving a quantity closer to the amount of data that applications
630 This property can also be referred to by its shortened column name,
633 For file systems, indicates whether the file system is currently mounted. This
634 property can be either

646 this opaque token can be provided to

651 The amount of data that is accessible by this dataset, which may or may not be
652 shared with other datasets in the pool. When a snapshot or clone is created, it
653 initially references the same amount of space as the file system or snapshot it
654 was created from, since its contents are identical.
656 This property can also be referred to by its shortened column name,
658 .It Sy refcompressratio
659 The compression ratio achieved for the
661 space of this dataset, expressed as a multiplier. See also the
664 .It Sy snapshot_count
665 The total number of snapshots that exist under this location in the dataset tree.
666 This value is only available when a
668 has been set somewhere
669 in the tree under which the dataset resides.
672 .Sy filesystem , volume , No or Sy snapshot .
674 The amount of space consumed by this dataset and all its descendents. This is
675 the value that is checked against this dataset's quota and reservation. The
676 space used does not include this dataset's reservation, but does take into
677 account the reservations of any descendent datasets. The amount of space that a
678 dataset consumes from its parent, as well as the amount of space that are freed
679 if this dataset is recursively destroyed, is the greater of its space used and
682 When snapshots (see the
684 section) are created, their space is
685 initially shared between the snapshot and the file system, and possibly with
686 previous snapshots. As the file system changes, space that was previously
687 shared becomes unique to the snapshot, and counted in the snapshot's space
688 used. Additionally, deleting snapshots can increase the amount of space unique
689 to (and used by) other snapshots.
691 The amount of space used, available, or referenced does not take into account
692 pending changes. Pending changes are generally accounted for within a few
693 seconds. Committing a change to a disk using
697 does not necessarily guarantee that the space usage information is updated
702 properties decompose the
704 properties into the various reasons that space is used. Specifically,
706 .Sy usedbysnapshots + usedbydataset + usedbychildren + usedbyrefreservation .
707 These properties are only available for datasets created
710 pool version 13 pools and higher.
711 .It Sy usedbysnapshots
712 The amount of space consumed by snapshots of this dataset. In particular, it is
713 the amount of space that would be freed if all of this dataset's snapshots were
714 destroyed. Note that this is not simply the sum of the snapshots'
716 properties because space can be shared by multiple snapshots.
718 The amount of space used by this dataset itself, which would be freed if the
719 dataset were destroyed (after first removing any
721 and destroying any necessary snapshots or descendents).
722 .It Sy usedbychildren
723 The amount of space used by children of this dataset, which would be freed if
724 all the dataset's children were destroyed.
725 .It Sy usedbyrefreservation
726 The amount of space used by a
728 set on this dataset, which would be freed if the
731 .It Sy userused@ Ns Ar user
732 The amount of space consumed by the specified user in this dataset. Space is
733 charged to the owner of each file, as displayed by

771 The amount of space consumed by the specified group in this dataset. Space is
772 charged to the group of each file, as displayed by
775 .Sy userused@ Ns Ar user
776 property for more information.
778 Unprivileged users can only access their own groups' space usage. The root
779 user, or a user who has been granted the
783 can access all groups' usage.
784 .It Sy volblocksize Ns = Ns Ar blocksize
785 For volumes, specifies the block size of the volume. The
787 cannot be changed once the volume has been written, so it should be set at
788 volume creation time. The default
790 for volumes is 8 Kbytes. Any
791 power of 2 from 512 bytes to 128 Kbytes is valid.
793 This property can also be referred to by its shortened column name,
798 space written to this dataset since the previous snapshot.
799 .It Sy written@ Ns Ar snapshot
802 space written to this dataset since the specified snapshot. This is the space
803 that is referenced by this dataset but was not referenced by the specified

933 you must first remove all
935 entries which do not represent the current mode.
936 .It Sy atime Ns = Ns Cm on | off
937 Controls whether the access time for files is updated when they are read.
938 Turning this property off avoids producing write traffic when reading files and
939 can result in significant performance gains, though it might confuse mailers
940 and other similar utilities. The default value is
942 .It Sy canmount Ns = Ns Cm on | off | noauto
943 If this property is set to
945 the file system cannot be mounted, and is ignored by
946 .Qq Nm Cm mount Fl a .
947 Setting this property to
949 is similar to setting the
953 except that the dataset still has a normal
955 property, which can be inherited. Setting this property to
957 allows datasets to be used solely as a mechanism to inherit properties. One
959 .Sy canmount Ns = Ns Cm off
960 is to have two datasets with the same
962 so that the children of both datasets appear in the same directory, but might
963 have different inherited characteristics.
967 value is set, a dataset can only be mounted and unmounted explicitly. The
968 dataset is not mounted automatically when the dataset is created or imported,
969 nor is it mounted by the
971 command or unmounted by the
972 .Qq Nm Cm umount Fl a
975 This property is not inherited.
976 .It Sy checksum Ns = Ns Cm on | off | fletcher2 | fletcher4 | sha256 | noparity | sha512 | skein
977 Controls the checksum used to verify data integrity. The default value is
979 which automatically selects an appropriate algorithm (currently,
981 but this may change in future releases). The value
983 disables integrity checking on user data.
987 disables integrity but also disables maintaining parity for user data. This
988 setting is used internally by a dump device residing on a RAID-Z pool and should
989 not be used by any other dataset.
990 Disabling checksums is
992 a recommended practice.
997 checksum algorithms require enabling the appropriate features on the pool.

1007 .It Sy compression Ns = Ns Cm on | off | lzjb | gzip | gzip- Ns Ar N | Cm zle | Cm lz4
1008 Controls the compression algorithm used for this dataset.
1009 Setting compression to
1011 indicates that the current default compression algorithm should be used.
1012 The default balances compression and decompression speed, with compression
1013 ratio and is expected to work well on a wide variety of workloads.

1075 Controls the number of copies of data stored for this dataset. These copies are
1076 in addition to any redundancy provided by the pool, for example, mirroring or
1077 RAID-Z. The copies are stored on different disks, if possible. The space used
1078 by multiple copies is charged to the associated file and dataset, changing the
1080 property and counting against quotas and reservations.

1140 Blocks smaller than or equal to this value will be assigned to the special
1141 allocation class while greater blocks will be assigned to the regular class.
1142 Valid values are zero or a power of two from 512B up to 128K.

1175 Controls what is cached in the primary cache (ARC). If this property is set to
1177 then both user data and metadata is cached. If this property is set to
1179 then neither user data nor metadata is cached. If this property is set to
1181 then only metadata is cached. The default value is
1183 .It Sy quota Ns = Ns Ar size | Cm none
1184 Limits the amount of space a dataset and its descendents can consume. This
1185 property enforces a hard limit on the amount of space used. This includes all
1186 space consumed by descendents, including file systems and snapshots. Setting a
1187 quota on a descendent of a dataset that already has a quota does not override
1188 the ancestor's quota, but rather imposes an additional limit.
1190 Quotas cannot be set on volumes, as the
1192 property acts as an implicit quota.

1221 such as snapshots and clones. User space consumption is identified by the
1222 .Sy userspace@ Ns Ar user
1225 Enforcement of user quotas may be delayed by several seconds. This delay means
1226 that a user might exceed their quota before the system notices that they are
1227 over quota and begins to refuse additional writes with the

1268 .It Sy readonly Ns = Ns Cm on | off
1269 Controls whether this dataset can be modified. The default value is
1271 .It Sy recordsize Ns = Ns Ar size
1272 Specifies a suggested block size for files in the file system. This property is
1273 designed solely for use with database workloads that access files in fixed-size
1276 automatically tunes block sizes according to internal algorithms optimized for
1277 typical access patterns.
1279 For databases that create very large files but access them in small random
1280 chunks, these algorithms may be suboptimal. Specifying a
1282 greater than or equal to the record size of the database can result in
1283 significant performance gains. Use of this property for general purpose file
1284 systems is strongly discouraged, and may adversely affect performance.
1286 The size specified must be a power of two greater than or equal to 512 and less

1299 This property can also be referred to by its shortened column name,
1301 .It Sy redundant_metadata Ns = Ns Cm all | most
1302 Controls what types of metadata are stored redundantly.
1303 ZFS stores an extra copy of metadata, so that if a single block is corrupted,
1304 the amount of user data lost is limited.
1305 This extra copy is in addition to any redundancy provided at the pool level
1306 .Pq e.g. by mirroring or RAID-Z ,
1307 and is in addition to an extra copy specified by the
1310 .Pq up to a total of 3 copies .
1311 For example if the pool is mirrored,
1312 .Cm copies Ns = Ns Ar 2 ,
1314 .Cm redundant_metadata Ns = Ns Ar most ,
1316 stores 6 copies of most metadata, and 4 copies of data and some
1321 ZFS stores an extra copy of all metadata.
1323 single on-disk block is corrupt, at worst a single block of user data
1332 ZFS stores an extra copy of most types of
1334 This can improve performance of random writes, because less
1335 metadata must be written.
1336 In practice, at worst about 100 blocks
1341 of user data can be lost if a single
1342 on-disk block is corrupt.
1343 The exact behavior of which metadata blocks
1344 are stored redundantly may change in future releases.
1346 The default value is
1348 .It Sy refquota Ns = Ns Ar size | Cm none
1349 Limits the amount of space a dataset can consume. This property enforces a hard
1350 limit on the amount of space used. This hard limit does not include space used
1351 by descendents, including file systems and snapshots.
1352 .It Sy refreservation Ns = Ns Ar size | Cm none | Cm auto
1353 The minimum amount of space guaranteed to a dataset, not including its
1354 descendents. When the amount of space used is below this value, the dataset is
1355 treated as if it were taking up the amount of space specified by
1356 .Sy refreservation .
1359 reservation is accounted for in the parent datasets' space used, and counts
1360 against the parent datasets' quotas and reservations.
1364 is set, a snapshot is only allowed if there is enough free pool space outside
1365 of this reservation to accommodate the current number of "referenced" bytes in

1374 is only supported on volumes.

1380 This property can also be referred to by its shortened column name,
1382 .It Sy reservation Ns = Ns Ar size | Cm none
1383 The minimum amount of space guaranteed to a dataset and its descendents. When
1384 the amount of space used is below this value, the dataset is treated as if it
1385 were taking up the amount of space specified by its reservation. Reservations
1386 are accounted for in the parent datasets' space used, and count against the

1389 This property can also be referred to by its shortened column name,
1391 .It Sy secondarycache Ns = Ns Cm all | none | metadata
1392 Controls what is cached in the secondary cache (L2ARC). If this property is set
1395 then both user data and metadata is cached. If this property is set to
1397 then neither user data nor metadata is cached. If this property is set to
1399 then only metadata is cached. The default value is

1463 directory is hidden or visible in the root of the file system as discussed in
1466 section. The default value is
1468 .It Sy sync Ns = Ns Cm standard | always | disabled
1469 Controls the behavior of synchronous requests (e.g.
1471 O_DSYNC). This property accepts the following values:
1472 .Bl -tag -offset 4n -width 8n
1474 This is the POSIX specified behavior of ensuring all synchronous requests are
1475 written to stable storage and all devices are flushed to ensure data is not
1476 cached by device controllers (this is the default).
1478 All file system transactions are written and flushed before their system calls
1479 return. This has a large performance penalty.
1481 Disables synchronous requests. File system transactions are only committed to
1482 stable storage periodically. This option will give the highest performance.
1483 However, it is very dangerous as
1485 would be ignoring the synchronous transaction demands of applications such as
1488 Administrators should only use this option when the risks are understood.
1490 .It Sy volsize Ns = Ns Ar size
1491 For volumes, specifies the logical size of the volume. By default, creating a
1492 volume establishes a reservation of equal size. For storage pools with a
1493 version number of 9 or higher, a
1495 is set instead. Any changes to
1497 are reflected in an equivalent change to the reservation (or
1498 .Sy refreservation ) .
1501 can only be set to a multiple of
1505 The reservation is kept equal to the volume's logical size to prevent
1506 unexpected behavior for consumers. Without the reservation, the volume could
1507 run out of space, resulting in undefined behavior or data corruption, depending
1508 on how the volume is used. These effects can also occur when the volume size is
1509 changed while it is in use (particularly when shrinking the size). Extreme care
1510 should be used when adjusting the volume size.
1512 Though not recommended, a "sparse volume" (also known as "thin provisioned")
1513 can be created by specifying the
1516 .Qq Nm Cm create Fl V
1517 command, or by changing the value of the
1523 version 8 or earlier
1525 after the volume has been created.
1526 A "sparse volume" is a volume where the value of
1528 is less then the size of the volume plus the space required to store its
1530 Consequently, writes to a sparse volume can fail with
1532 when the pool is low on space. For a sparse volume, changes to
1534 are not reflected in the
1535 .Sy refreservation .
1536 A volume that is not sparse is said to be "thick provisioned".
1537 A sparse volume can become thick provisioned by setting

1547 providers, providing maximal functionality.
1550 exposes volumes only as cdev device in devfs.
1551 Such volumes can be accessed only as raw disk device files, i.e. they
1552 can not be partitioned, mounted, participate in RAIDs, etc, but they
1553 are faster, and in some use scenarios with untrusted consumer, such as
1554 NAS or VM storage, can be more safe.
1555 Volumes with property set to
1557 are not exposed outside ZFS, but can be snapshoted, cloned, replicated, etc,
1558 that can be suitable for backup purposes.

1590 The following three properties cannot be changed after the file system is
1591 created, and therefore, should be set when the file system is created. If the
1592 properties are not set with the
1596 commands, these properties are inherited from the parent dataset. If the parent
1597 dataset lacks these properties due to having been created prior to these
1598 features being supported, the new file system will have the default values for

1602 Indicates whether the file name matching algorithm used by the file system
1603 should be case-sensitive, case-insensitive, or allow a combination of both
1604 styles of matching. The default value for the
1608 Traditionally, UNIX and POSIX file systems have case-sensitive file names.
1614 property indicates that the
1615 file system can support requests for both case-sensitive and case-insensitive
1617 .It Sy normalization Ns = Ns Cm none | formC | formD | formKC | formKD
1618 Indicates whether the file system should perform a
1620 normalization of file names whenever two file names are compared, and which
1621 normalization algorithm should be used. File names are always stored
1622 unmodified, names are normalized as part of any comparison process. If this
1623 property is set to a legal value other than
1627 property was left unspecified, the
1629 property is automatically set to

1636 .It Sy utf8only Ns = Ns Cm on | off
1637 Indicates whether the file system should reject file names that include
1638 characters that are not present in the
1640 character code set. If this property is explicitly set to

1653 properties are also new permissions that can be assigned to non-privileged
1656 delegated administration feature.
1657 .Ss Temporary Mount Point Properties
1658 When a file system is mounted, either through
1660 for legacy mounts or the
1662 command for normal file systems, its mount options are set according to its
1663 properties. The correlation between properties and mount options is as follows:
1664 .Bl -column -offset 4n "PROPERTY" "MOUNT OPTION"
1665 .It "PROPERTY MOUNT OPTION"
1666 .It "atime atime/noatime"
1667 .It "exec exec/noexec"
1668 .It "readonly ro/rw"
1669 .It "setuid suid/nosuid"
1672 In addition, these options can be set on a per-mount basis using the
1674 option, without affecting the property that is stored on disk. The values
1675 specified on the command line override the values stored in the dataset. These
1676 properties are reported as "temporary" by the
1678 command. If the properties are changed while the dataset is mounted, the new
1679 setting overrides any temporary settings.
1681 In addition to the standard native properties,
1683 supports arbitrary user properties. User properties have no effect on
1685 behavior, but applications or administrators can use them to annotate datasets
1686 (file systems, volumes, and snapshots).
1688 User property names must contain a colon
1690 character to distinguish them from native properties. They may contain
1691 lowercase letters, numbers, and the following punctuation characters: colon
1699 The expected convention is that the property name is divided into two portions
1701 .Em module Ns Sy \&: Ns Em property ,
1702 but this namespace is not enforced by
1704 User property names can be at most 256 characters, and cannot begin with a dash
1707 When making programmatic use of user properties, it is strongly suggested to
1712 component of property names to reduce the chance that two
1713 independently-developed packages use the same property name for different
1714 purposes. Property names beginning with
1716 are reserved for use by Sun Microsystems.
1718 The values of user properties are arbitrary strings, are always inherited, and
1719 are never validated. All of the commands that operate on properties
1726 can be used to manipulate both native properties and user properties. Use the
1728 command to clear a user property. If the property is not defined in any parent

2992 Use the full sent snapshot path without the first element (without pool name)
2993 to determine the name of the new snapshot as described in the paragraph above.

3006 .It Fl o Sy origin Ns = Ns Ar snapshot
3007 Forces the stream to be received as a clone of the given snapshot.
3008 If the stream is a full send stream, this will create the filesystem
3009 described by the stream as a clone of the specified snapshot. Which
3010 snapshot was specified will not affect the success or failure of the
3011 receive, as long as the snapshot does exist. If the stream is an
3012 incremental send stream, all the normal verification will be performed.
3014 Force a rollback of the file system to the most recent snapshot before
3015 performing the receive operation. If receiving an incremental replication
3016 stream (for example, one generated by
3017 .Qq Nm Cm send Fl R Bro Fl i | Fl I Brc ) ,
3018 destroy snapshots and file systems that do not exist on the sending side.
3020 Force an unmount of the file system while receiving a snapshot.
3021 This option is not supported on Linux.
3023 If the receive is interrupted, save the partially received state, rather
3024 than deleting it. Interruption may be due to premature termination of
3026 .Po e.g. due to network failure or failure of the remote system
3027 if the stream is being read over a network connection
3029 a checksum error in the stream, termination of the
3031 process, or unclean shutdown of the system.

3448 Executes a read-only channel program, which runs faster.
3449 The program cannot change on-disk state by calling functions from
3450 the zfs.sync submodule.
3451 The program can be used to gather information such as properties and
3452 determining if changes would succeed (zfs.check.*).
3453 Without this flag, all pending changes must be synced to disk before
3454 a channel program can complete.
3456 Execution time limit, in milliseconds.
3457 If a channel program executes for longer than the provided timeout, it will
3458 be stopped and an error will be returned.
3459 The default timeout is 1000 ms, and can be set to a maximum of 10000 ms.
3460 .It Fl m Ar memory-limit
3461 Memory limit, in bytes.
3462 If a channel program attempts to allocate more memory than the given limit,
3463 it will be stopped and an error returned.
3464 The default memory limit is 10 MB, and can be set to a maximum of 100 MB.
3466 All remaining argument strings are passed directly to the channel program as
3470 for more information.
