Matthew:
Thanks.
I did not notice this option.
Searching on the net led me to another solution (copying below), which can
be used after a zone has already been created.
global# zfs create -o montpoint=none zones/ds
global# zonecfg -z {UUID}
add dataset
set name=zones/ds
end
commit
exit
-- Stop and start the zone
zone# init 5
global# vmadm start {UUID}
-- From within the zone, mount the ZFS dataset
zone# zfs set mountpoint=/var/www zones/ds
My goal is to have a ZFS dataset available within a zone that will survive
the deletion of a VM. Will this be true for the dataset created within the
VM via the delegated_dataset option? And similarly, will a delegated
dataset created via the second option survive the deletion of a VM?
Thanks.
