Hi all. Quick question for you. I've got a pair of freebsd 9 systems running zfs. i've got my primary system doing ZFS SEND each night to my secondary system for backups. I'm using a script I wrote to automate the process. I'm passing the zfs send & receive through gnetcat as a buffer which increases the speed of the transfer quite a bit. The script is available here: http://pastebin.com/2suzs3wP My problem is, when I run this script it syncs just fine, but it never actually ends. It just sits there until I kill it. I would love to have this run as a scheduled cron job, but until I can get this to exit cleanly when it is done, that won't be an option. Here is the output I get when I run this: http://pastebin.com/q8hRzuVv Would really appreciate any advice you may have. If anyone has a cleaner/more efficient way of doing these incremental send/receives, that would be great too. Thanks, Brian
