Fast copy (cp -z) and reflink() function in man page but not found in S11.3

In reading the Solaris 11.3 man pages I found references to performing a "fast copy" either via the "-z" option to the cp command, or via the reflink() library function. However I am unable to find this functionality on my S11.3 platform with the latest SRU installed.

Man page for cp with "-z" option:

https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E53394_01/html/E54763/cp-1.html#scrolltoc

Man page for reflink():

https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E53394_01/html/E54766/reflink-3c.html

Howdy, Stranger!
