Solaris ZFS Administration Guide

The description of the compression property in Table ZFS Native Property Descriptions under Managing ZFS File Systems is incorrect:

Controls the compression algorithm used for this dataset. Currently, you can select lzjb, gzip, or gzip-N. Enabling compression on a file system with existing data only compresses new data. Existing data remains uncompressed. This property can also be referred to by its shortened column name, compress.

The description should now read as follows:

Enables or disables compression for this dataset. The values are on, off, and lzjb. Currently, setting this property to the lzjb algorithm has the same effect as setting this property to on. The default value is off. Enabling compression on a file system with existing data only compresses new data. Existing data remains uncompressed. This property can also be referred to by its shortened column name, compress.
