So (considering ALL the responses to this thread thus far), for a one-user
machine, the really simplest (and foolproof, least chance of screwup) is
to have but ONE zfs, and snapshot THAT, and write IT to tape,
etc.

Myself -- knowing myself, that is -- having several zfs's
(via a a single top-level recursive snapshot)
around to write to tape -- seems like way to easy
to screw up, to forget to save, etc.

(A *professional* sysadmin, of course, might well do
it differently.)

So, before I cement myself into a design, does what I
propose for me, for my single-user machine, sound reasonable
enough?

SAFE enough?

Comments, please...


THANKS!

David
