Hi,

   I have now repeated this several times and continue to receive  
these weird errors. To confirm my steps to produce this, I am simply  
doing:

zpool create nas1bkp raidz ada4p1 ada5p1 ada6p1 ada7p1

zfs send nas1/iscsi-cctv@another | zfs receive nas1bkp/iscsi-cctv

The send takes over 12 hours as the volume size is nearly 3TB. I  
therefore used the disown command to allow the process to complete  
while not connected to the server. I tested this also using the nohup  
command with the same result. I also tested using a small test volume  
of just 100M and I don't get the same errors. So its only occuring  
with very large send/receive operations.

If no one has any ideas, or any other tests I might do then I guess  
I'm just gona have to ignore these as the pool seems fine aparte from  
these... :S

thanks Andy.
