Each snapshot has its own tag namespace, and tags must be unique within that space. If a hold exists on a snapshot, attempts to destroy that snapshot by using the zfs destroy command return EBUSY. -r Specifies that a hold with the given tag is applied recursively to the snapshots of all descendent file systems. zfs holds [-rHp] snapshot Lists all existing user references for the given snapshot or snap- shots. -r Lists the holds that are set on the named descendent snapshots, in addition to listing the holds on the named snapshot. -H Do not print headers, use tab-delimited output. -p Prints holds timestamps as unix epoch timestamps. zfs release [-r] tag snapshot Removes a single reference, named with the tag argument, from the specified snapshot or snapshots. The tag must already exist for each snapshot. If a hold exists on a snapshot, attempts to destroy that snapshot by using the zfs destroy command return EBUSY. -r Recursively releases a hold with the given tag on the snapshots of all descendent file systems.
