I find this sort of thing to be common, but not exactly as you describe. I don't know if I tried df, but "zfs list" hangs (as well as any other zfs related command, maybe even zdb). And I don't know what you mean "importing zfs snapshot", so I'm guessing you mean zfs recv. eg. zfs send somedataset@somesnapshot | ....... (leave it running in background) zfs list (works fine; I guess it works because send is read-only) zfs destroy somedataset@someothersnapshot (hang; I guess because this is a write operation, so it needs to wait for the read lock on zfs send to finish the transaction) zfs list (hang) I'm not sure if df hangs too. At this point, using kill -9 doesn't solve anything, and if you kill the zfs send, it's possible that every zfs command and df will hang. And I don't know what, but I'm mostly sure there is something I can run that will make even "ls" hang after this point.
