36.Sh NAME
37.Nm zfs-rollback
38.Nd roll ZFS dataset back to snapshot
39.Sh SYNOPSIS
40.Nm zfs
41.Cm rollback
42.Op Fl Rfr
43.Ar snapshot
44.
45.Sh DESCRIPTION
46When a dataset is rolled back, all data that has changed since the snapshot is
47discarded, and the dataset reverts to the state at the time of the snapshot.
48By default, the command refuses to roll back to a snapshot other than the most
49recent one.
50In order to do so, all intermediate snapshots and bookmarks must be destroyed by
51specifying the
52.Fl r
53option.
54.Pp
55The
56.Fl rR
57options do not recursively destroy the child snapshots of a recursive snapshot.
58Only direct snapshots of the specified filesystem are destroyed by either of
59these options.
60To completely roll back a recursive snapshot, you must roll back the individual
61child snapshots.
62.Bl -tag -width "-R"
63.It Fl R
64Destroy any more recent snapshots and bookmarks, as well as any clones of those
65snapshots.
66.It Fl f
67Used with the
68.Fl R
69option to force an unmount of any clone file systems that are to be destroyed.
70.It Fl r
71Destroy any snapshots and bookmarks more recent than the one specified.
