zfs send -w (raw) flag on QuTS 6.0

Does QuTS 6 support the -w flag on zfs send? I have a one dataset in a pool that is encrypted and I don’t want to re-encrypt that key, but the other datasets can inherit the default encryption of the target pool. The zfs send in 5.x doesn’t support -w.

Thank you.

Thanks Steve. I have a ts-664 and i use one of the spare bays for a single large 24TB drive to back up my raidz2. The raidz2 is mostly unencrypted but there is one dataset that is encrypted. The 24TB vol is also encrypted with its own key. My understanding is that if I can use -w to do the snapshot to the 24TB the encrypted Raidz2 dataset will still keep its key, while the rest of the 24TB will inherit the key it was created with.
