I know this is a really old post but I'm curious if there is a way to exclude one dataset from the snapshot....

My use case would be this:

I have many datasets with useful data in my pool but I have one dataset that is very large and very easy to replicate by other means and thus I don't want to back it up. I'd rather exclude it from backup altogether.

so far I've been running a script with each dataset's name instead of the just doing the snapshot at the pool level, but it's kind of messy.

Any way to exclude? thanks

I'm afraid not.
