I am sure this has been covered but I do not seem to be able to find the right search terms. So, I appreciate help on the following: I need to copy just one folder/directory contained within a dataset to another dataset stored with another pool. Both datasets are accessible via SMB shares. The use of ZFS send/receive does not seem appropriate here because I only see to copy a fraction of the dataset.
In principle, I could do the copy from a Windows machine with both shares mounted. However, this would involve the network and be terribly slow.
In theory, "cp -R" from /mnt/media/dataset/folder to /mnt/media2/dataset/folder would do the trick, but I am not sure this would retain the Windows permission.
Again, help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance!
