Hi,

Sorry if this is answered somewhere but I've read most of the SmartOS blog + 
searched smartos-discuss listbox to no avail.


I have a OS virtual machine (just base-64 standard) and want to use it to serve 
NFS filesystems. I have read about using

"delegate_dataset": true but I'd rather not use a zfs dataset / volume below 
the zones/<uuid>/ just in case I'm stupid and delete the virtual machine.


I have previously used lofs to add datasets to other vm's in order to serve up 
SMB shares using Samba but then I read that its possible to delegate a dataset 
to a zone using zonecfg -> add dataset so it can be administered within the vm 
(zlogin). I have tried that but it would not allow me to change the zfs 
sharenfs property and I am confused about the differences, if any, of using 
sharenfs and sharemgr from within the vm.


Any help would be great or just point me in the right direction.


Many thanks


PS: I only have 2 servers and am trying to setup a hyper-converged 
infrastructure for my small (1 person) company to use.
