See .Xr zfsprops 8 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 .Sy B , K , M , G , T , P , E , Z .Po for bytes, kilobytes, megabytes, gigabytes, terabytes, petabytes, exabytes, or zettabytes, respectively .Pc .

If no datasets are specified, then the command displays properties for all datasets on the system. For each property, the following columns are displayed: .Bl -tag -compact -offset 4n -width "property" .It Sy name Dataset name .It Sy property Property name .It Sy value Property value .It Sy source Property source .Sy local , default , inherited , temporary , received , No or Sy - Pq none . .El .Pp All columns are displayed by default, though this can be controlled by using the .Fl o option. This command takes a comma-separated list of properties as described in the .Sx Native Properties and .Sx User Properties sections of .Xr zfsprops 8 . .Pp The value .Sy all can be used to display all properties that apply to the given dataset's type .Pq Sy filesystem , volume , snapshot , No or Sy bookmark . .Bl -tag -width "-s source" .It Fl 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. .It Fl d Ar depth Recursively display any children of the dataset, limiting the recursion to .Ar depth . A depth of .Sy 1 will display only the dataset and its direct children. .It Fl o Ar field A comma-separated list of columns to display, defaults to .Sy name , Ns Sy property , Ns Sy value , Ns Sy source . .It Fl p Display numbers in parsable .Pq exact values. .It Fl r Recursively display properties for any children. .It Fl s Ar 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: .Sy local , default , inherited , temporary , received , No or Sy none . The default value is all sources. .It Fl t Ar type A comma-separated list of types to display, where .Ar type is one of .Sy filesystem , snapshot , volume , bookmark , No or Sy all . .El .It Xo .Nm zfs .Cm inherit .Op Fl rS .Ar property Ar filesystem Ns | Ns Ar volume Ns | Ns Ar snapshot Ns … .Xc 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 .Fl S option reverted to the received value if one exists. See .Xr zfsprops 8 for a listing of default values, and details on which properties can be inherited. .Bl -tag -width "-r" .It Fl r Recursively inherit the given property for all children. .It Fl S Revert the property to the received value if one exists; otherwise operate as if the .Fl S option was not specified. .El .El . .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr zfs-list 8 , .Xr zfsprops 8
