Hi, using the latest FreeNAS-9.2.1.6-RELEASE-x64 (ddd1e39).

I get the one issue - of the Remote site not having aclmode ZFS option. However, it seems often there is a conflict of the POOLNAME@auto-YYYYMMDD between the two source Zpools.

Source Server: [i have option set for recursive so any dataset is copied as well.]
tpool01
tpool02

Target Server:
lpool

After many tries - I've finally have all datasets on the remote [Target] server however, it is
not updating... often there is an error from one or the other replication task complaining about
snapshot - lpool@auto-YYYYMMDD.xxxx-3d and it stops sending data.

How can I alleviate this issue?

I do not have following options set as it wipes the other datasets for target Zpool:

Recursively replicate and remove stale snapshot on remote side:
Initialize remote side for once. (May cause data loss on remote side):

I have Remote ZFS Volume/Dataset: set to name of the Zpool on Target machine: lpool

Any helful advise is appreciated...

I'm no linux expert with ZFS, but I believe if you do 2 datasets and have each replication go to a different dataset then all will be okay.

Indeed this works! now on my target server I created these datasets:

lpool/tpool01
lpool/tpool02

It is working fine now. This way it is isolated from each other.
