My backup strategy involves using 'zfs send | zfs receive' to backup to an external USB drive. Will there be any problems backing up the upgraded pool to the 'not upgraded' external drive? Assuming that backing up to a 'not upgraded' pool is doable then am I correct in assuming that in the worst case I could revert to 13.2 by doing a fresh install of 13.2 and then restoring from a 13.2 snapshot on the backup drive. -- Mike Clarke --nextPart2660354.TYJnH3iKXO Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7Bit Content-Type: text/html; charset="UTF-8" <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"> </head> <body><p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;">On Friday, 24 November 2023 17:43:53 GMT Matthew Seaman wrote:</p> <br /><p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;">> Now you can apply the `zpool upgrade` This will make any FreeBSD 13</p> <p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;">> Boot Environments you may have unusable, so those can be deleted.</p> <br /><p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;">My backup strategy involves using 'zfs send | zfs receive' to backup to an external USB drive.
