so I installed proxmox on a zfs mirror. Now I want to back up that pool so that I can restore it incase files get deleted to both drives dies.

I did a snapshot and sent that snapsho to another pool on the host, but its very small. no real full backup. maybe its a clone im after?
Code:
# zfs list -t snapshot rpool/ROOT
NAME                  USED  AVAIL  REFER  MOUNTPOINT
rpool/ROOT@20240716     0B      -    96K  -
rpool/ROOT@20240718     0B      -    96K  -



Code:
# zfs list -t snapshot tank/ROOT
NAME                 USED  AVAIL  REFER  MOUNTPOINT
tank/ROOT@20240716     0B      -    96K  -


Code:
# zfs send -v rpool/ROOT@20240716 | zfs recv tank/ROOT
full send of rpool/ROOT@20240716 estimated size is 42.6K
total estimated size is 42.6K
TIME        SENT   SNAPSHOT rpool/ROOT@20240716

Help with what ?
I tell you, I want to access my backups and download them since it was damaged on another server and I wanted to do it through winscp but it does not allow me access and I don't know what is happening because in the server console I do get port 22 enabled, which is normally enabled. use for that so I wanted to know a way to solve the error although I don't know exactly what the error I have would be because it is enabled and when I connect with winscp or any other it doesn't connect at all

I think you need to create your own thread for that, and be more specific
