I don't know your situation but with thin provisioning, shared storage within a pool and the ability to grow zfs pools and datasets, I would consider encapsulating each project within a file system, and perhaps use additional file systems to export different views onto each project, rather than build projects across multiple file systems. > Any point in filing an RFE for an extra VFS-layer that works around this? RFE's are always welcome but it's not a small project due to all the functional and behavioral consistency issues across mount points.
