DESCRIPTION¶
  zfs set
    property=value
    [property=value]…
    filesystem|volume|snapshot… 
  - Only some properties can be edited. See zfsprops(7) for
      more information on what properties can be set and acceptable values.
      Numeric values can be specified as exact values, or in a human-readable
      form with a suffix of
      B,
      K,
      M,
      G,
      T,
      P,
      E,
      Z (for bytes,
      kilobytes, megabytes, gigabytes, terabytes, petabytes, exabytes, or
      zettabytes, respectively). User properties can be set on snapshots. For
      more information, see the
      User
      Properties section of zfsprops(7).
 
  zfs get
    [-r|-d
    depth] [-Hp]
    [-o
    field[,field]…]
    [-s
    source[,source]…]
    [-t
    type[,type]…]
    all|property[,property]…
    [filesystem|volume|snapshot|bookmark]… 
  - Displays properties for the given datasets. If no datasets are specified,
      then the command displays properties for all datasets on the system. For
      each property, the following columns are displayed:
    
    
      - name
 
      - Dataset name
 
      - property
 
      - Property name
 
      - value
 
      - Property value
 
      - source
 
      - Property source local, default,
          inherited, temporary,
          received, or
          - (none).
 
    
     
    All columns are displayed by default, though this can be
        controlled by using the -o option. This command
        takes a comma-separated list of properties as described in the
        Native Properties and
        User Properties sections of
        zfsprops(7).
    The value all can be used to display all
        properties that apply to the given dataset's type
        (filesystem, volume,
        snapshot, or
        bookmark).
    
      -H 
      - Display output in a form more easily parsed by scripts. Any headers
          are omitted, and fields are explicitly separated by a single tab
          instead of an arbitrary amount of space.
 
      -d
        depth 
      - Recursively display any children of the dataset, limiting the
          recursion to depth. A depth of
          1 will
          display only the dataset and its direct children.
 
      -o
        field 
      - A comma-separated list of columns to display, defaults to
          name,property,value,source.
 
      -p 
      - Display numbers in parsable (exact) values.
 
      -r 
      - Recursively display properties for any children.
 
      -s
        source 
      - A comma-separated list of sources to display. Those properties coming
          from a source other than those in this list are ignored. Each source
          must be one of the following: local,
          default, inherited,
          temporary, received,
          or
          none.
          The default value is all sources.
 
      -t
        type 
      - A comma-separated list of types to display, where
          type is one of filesystem,
          snapshot, volume,
          bookmark, or
          all.
 
    
   
  zfs inherit
    [-rS] property
    filesystem|volume|snapshot… 
  - Clears the specified property, causing it to be inherited from an
      ancestor, restored to default if no ancestor has the property set, or with
      the 
-S option reverted to the received value if
      one exists. See zfsprops(7) for a listing of default
      values, and details on which properties can be inherited.
    
      -r 
      - Recursively inherit the given property for all children.
 
      -S 
      - Revert the property to the received value, if one exists; otherwise,
          for non-inheritable properties, to the default; otherwise, operate as
          if the 
-S option was not specified.
