I entered the following command which obviously failed.
cyclone:zfs cap$ zfs diff big/glake@feb > tmp.out
Unable to determine path or stats for object 344236 in big/glake@feb: No such file or directory
A little work with zdb confirmed there is such an object and that it doesn't have a name/path
it did have a parent, also no name, which had one entry with the name com.vmware.backupReenabled
that is a file attribute used by vmware.
I don't really care about that just that zfs diff quit before it was done.
Anybody know what is going on here ? How to get zfs diff to finish ?
