Hello,
Is there an easy way to prestage snapshots for replication. When you have huge datasets it is easier to zfs send receiv to a local disk, transfer it the the other machine and do the same to pre stage the snapshots.
It seems the GUI replication forces the receiving side to use -F which deletes all snapshots on first sync even if you have prestaged. It would be great if there was an option to turn this off or tick a box so it starts with an incremental sync instead of full sync?
Zrep has an option to do this but I would rather use the built in system.
Cheers
