Description Shawn Webb 2015-02-13 10:24:35 UTC 
The `zfs send` command doesn't currently support SIGINFO. It seems like that would be an extremely useful feature. So this is just a feature request. If I get time, I might implement it and submit a patch.

That would not be easy to do, because almost the entire command happens within the kernel in a single ioctl call.  Instead, I suggest piping find to pv (from sysutils/pv) for progress monitoring.

Reassigning to the submitter, since this is a feature request.  Please close the issue if you no longer intend to do it.

^Triage: close as OBE, as there does not seem to be anything happening here.
