I have to disagree. The name 'legacy' implies that you foresee a day
when /etc/vfstab disappears, or at least is no longer used. would you
also get rid of the 'mount' command? That's impossible. While 'neat'
putting things like 'mount' and 'share' as built-ins to ZFS is really
backwards, and non-productuve since they only manage ZFS filesystems.
If mount, /etc/vfstab, share, /etc/dfs/dfstab, and sharemgr can manage
everything, including ZFS, why as an admin would I also want to spend
time learning, or using, or have to remember how to use 'zfs mount',
'zfs set', and 'zfs share' also?
What advantages do the ZFS commands get me?
For Filesystems types that mount can figure out on it's own, why should
a user or admin have to know that this filesystem is ZFS and should use
one mount command, while all others use 'mount'?
Please move this to [email protected]. The decision on how ZFS
works and the subcommands was made more than 5 years ago and revisiting
that is not this ARC case.
