Hi.

I read the zfs getting started guided at
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/zfs/intro/;jsessionid=A64DABB3DF86B8FDBF8A3E281C30B8B2.

I created zpool disk1 and created disk1/home and assigned /export/home
to disk1/home as mountpoint. Then I create a user with 'zfs create
disk1/home/username' and the partition is mounted beneath disk1/home
as it should.

When I add the user via smc I get the message:

The attempt to modify the Home Directory /export/home/username for
User username failed because ...: Directory path already exists'.

So in order to remedy this I create the user first, manually move the
directory create to /export/home.ufs and then creates the
zfs-partition. But it seems that this is not the optimal way when you
have to deal with 100 or more users. Fortunately I only have less than
10 accounts to handle but this method is somewhat cumbersome.

Are other tools better suited when creating users that resides in
zfs-partitions?
