- Renames the given dataset. The new target can be located anywhere in the
ZFS hierarchy, with the exception of snapshots. Snapshots can only be
renamed within the parent file system or volume. When renaming a snapshot,
the parent file system of the snapshot does not need to be specified as
part of the second argument. Renamed file systems can inherit new mount
points, in which case they are unmounted and remounted at the new mount
point.
-f
- Force unmount any file systems that need to be unmounted in the
process. This flag has no effect if used together with the
-u
flag.
-p
- Creates all the nonexistent parent datasets. Datasets created in this
manner are automatically mounted according to the
mountpoint property inherited from their
parent.
-u
- Do not remount file systems during rename. If a file system's
mountpoint property is set to
legacy
or
none,
the file system is not unmounted even if this option is not
given.

-r
snapshot
snapshot
- Recursively rename the snapshots of all descendent datasets. Snapshots are
the only dataset that can be renamed recursively.
