Thanks for getting back.Anyway, I've done some more digging. It seems to be related to having delegated a dataset to a zone. I have two zones 'basezone' and 'paulzone'.

It looks like you are doing all of this in the nonglobal zone. You can certainly create files in any directory in the path /tank/zones/foobar within the zone, but that doesn't mean you are doing anything to the global zone. Within the global zone, can you see /tank/zones/foobar? Can you create files in the global zone in /tank/zones that are then visible within the nonglobal zone? I cannot.
