IMO that isn't a very descriptive name for end admins isn't there anything better ? If there isn't then fair-enough. Is this a ZPL property or a normal one ? Why is this a separate per dataset property rather than an option for sharenfs or sharesmb ? I'm assuming the answer is because like the oplocks discussion in PSARC/2009/140 ie it has to be the same for all shares of the dataset (which for CIFS can overlap but can't for NFS). Actually given that what is the reason this isn't an option for the smb property (obviously that doesn't allow it to be used for NFS) ? -- Darren J Moffat
