Hi,
I know this is the OpenZFS forum but I'm using MacZFS on a MacPro running OS X 10.7 and can't upgrade to the OpenZFS project. I am running Mac ZFS 74.3.3 and it has been a very stable installation running for over a year without issues.
I accidentally deleted some files from the filesystem today and want to retrieve them from a snapshot. I do NOT want to roll back to the snapshot entirely.
I've tried without success to mount my snapshots, I get this error:
bash-3.2# zfs mount pool/files@201602211633
cannot open 'pool/files@201602211633': operation not applicable to datasets of this type
Also tried to list the contents of snapshots following directions I found online:
bash-3.2# zfs set snapdir=visible pool/files
The command is accepted, but no .zfs directory ever appears.
I very much appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks,
-Rob
