Glad it helped you.

As far as it concerns your observation about the root user, please
take into account that Solaris Role Based Access control lets you fine
tune privileges you grant to users: your "ZFS administrator" needs not
be root. Specifically, if you have a look at your /etc/prof_attr and
/etc/exec_attr, you'll notice that there exist two profiles: ZFS
Storage Management and ZFS File System Management:

exec_attr:ZFS File System Management:solaris:cmd:::/sbin/zfs:euid=0
exec_attr:ZFS Storage Management:solaris:cmd:::/sbin/zpool:uid=0

You can run the zfs and zpool command from a "mortal user" account
with pfexec if such users is associated with the corresponding
profile.

Bye,
Enrico
