NAME

       zfs-set — set properties on ZFS datasets

SYNOPSIS

       zfs set property=value [property=value]… filesystem|volume|snapshot…
       zfs   get   [-r|-d   depth]   [-Hp]   [-o   field[,field]…]   [-s   source[,source]…]  [-t  type[,type]…]
           all|property[,property]… [filesystem|volume|snapshot|bookmark]…
       zfs inherit [-rS] property filesystem|volume|snapshot…

DESCRIPTION

       zfs set property=value [property=value]… filesystem|volume|snapshot…
         Only some properties can be edited.  See zfsprops(7) for more information on what properties can be set
         and acceptable values.  Numeric values can be specified as exact values, or in  a  human-readable  form
         with  a  suffix  of  B,  K,  M,  G,  T, P, E, Z (for bytes, kilobytes, megabytes, gigabytes, terabytes,
         petabytes, exabytes, or zettabytes, respectively).  User properties can be set on snapshots.  For  more
         information, see the User Properties section of zfsprops(7).

       zfs   get   [-r|-d   depth]   [-Hp]   [-o   field[,field]…]   [-s   source[,source]…]  [-t  type[,type]…]
         all|property[,property]… [filesystem|volume|snapshot|bookmark]…
         Displays properties for the given datasets.  If no datasets are specified, then  the  command  displays
         properties for all datasets on the system.  For each property, the following columns are displayed:
             name      Dataset name
             property  Property name
             value     Property value
             source    Property source local, default, inherited, temporary, received, or - (none).

         All  columns  are  displayed  by  default,  though this can be controlled by using the -o option.  This
         command takes a comma-separated list of properties as described in the “Native  Properties”  and  “User
         Properties” sections of zfsprops(7).

         The value all can be used to display all properties that apply to the given dataset's type (filesystem,
         volume, snapshot, or bookmark).

         -H         Display output in a form more easily parsed by scripts.  Any headers are omitted, and fields
                    are explicitly separated by a single tab instead of an arbitrary amount of space.

         -d depth   Recursively  display  any children of the dataset, limiting the recursion to depth.  A depth
                    of 1 will display only the dataset and its direct children.

         -o field   A comma-separated list of columns to display, defaults to name,property,value,source.

         -p         Display numbers in parsable (exact) values.

         -r         Recursively display properties for any children.

         -s source  A comma-separated list of sources to display.  Those properties coming from a  source  other
                    than  those  in  this  list  are  ignored.  Each source must be one of the following: local,
                    default, inherited, temporary, received, or none.  The default value is all sources.

         -t type    A comma-separated list of types to display, where  type  is  one  of  filesystem,  snapshot,
                    volume, bookmark, or all.

       zfs inherit [-rS] property filesystem|volume|snapshot…
         Clears  the  specified property, causing it to be inherited from an ancestor, restored to default if no
         ancestor has the property set, or with the -S option reverted to the received value if one exists.  See
         zfsprops(7) for a listing of default values, and details on which properties can be inherited.

         -r  Recursively inherit the given property for all children.

         -S  Revert the  property  to  the  received  value,  if  one  exists;  otherwise,  for  non-inheritable
             properties, to the default; otherwise, operate as if the -S option was not specified.
