zstreammanipulate ZFS send streams

SYNOPSIS

zstream dump [-Cvd] [file]

zstream redup [-v] file

zstream token resume_token

DESCRIPTION

The zstream utility manipulates ZFS send streams output by the zfs send command.
zstream dump [-Cvd] [file]
Print information about the specified send stream, including headers and record counts. The send stream may either be in the specified file, or provided on standard input.
-C
Suppress the validation of checksums.
-v
Verbose. Print metadata for each record.
-d
Dump data contained in each record. Implies verbose.
The zstreamdump alias is provided for compatibility and is equivalent to running zstream dump.
zstream token resume_token
Dumps zfs resume token information
zstream redup [-v] file
Deduplicated send streams can be generated by using the zfs send -D command. The ability to send deduplicated send streams is deprecated. In the future, the ability to receive a deduplicated send stream with zfs receive will be removed. However, deduplicated send streams can still be received by utilizing zstream redup.
The zstream redup command is provided a file containing a deduplicated send stream, and outputs an equivalent non-deduplicated send stream on standard output. Therefore, a deduplicated send stream can be received by running:
# zstream redup DEDUP_STREAM_FILE | zfs receive
-v
Verbose. Print summary of converted records.
