Hello:
I have used napp-it's replication extension to backup all the datasets on my main pool. Then I destroyed the main pool in order to change its configuration. Now I need to restore.
I can figure out how to restore it manually using zfs send | recv of course, but I wonder if there's a way to restore the replicated copy to the master pool AND THEN still have the replicated backup continue to be updated.
I am guessing that unless I do something special, after restoring the backup I will have to create a new replication job and it will have to do the initial backup again -- even though that data is actually on the replication server drive already.
The name of the master pool is the same as it was before, so that might help. Both machines are OI.
Thanks.
