there was a wallops joke made around that time.

Hi,

I am trying to attach a dataset to a zone. I have already set it as "legacy" in the GZ, but if I try to attach it:

root@omnios:~# zonecfg -z vault

zonecfg:vault> add fs

zonecfg:vault:fs> set type=zfs

zonecfg:vault:fs> set special=tank/storage/vault

zonecfg:vault:fs> set dir=vault

zonecfg:vault:fs> end

dir vault is not an absolute path

it isn't mounted anywhere, and this is an encrypted dataset. Is this the correct way attaching it? Or am I supposed to use the "dataset" property?

I have found a type, it should be set dir=/vault

Ah yeah, that would make sense

but now:

root@omnios:~# zonecfg -z vault

zonecfg:vault> add fs

zonecfg:vault:fs> set type=zfs

zonecfg:vault:fs> set special=tank/storage/vault

zonecfg:vault:fs> set dir=/vault

zonecfg:vault:fs> end

zonecfg:vault> verify

zonecfg:vault> commit

zonecfg:vault> exit

root@omnios:~# zadm boot vault

zone 'vault': "/usr/lib/fs/zfs/mount tank/storage/vault /zones/vault/root/vault" failed with exit code 1

zoneadm: zone 'vault': call to zoneadmd failed

ERROR: cannot boot zone vault:

root@omnios:~#

What am I doing wrong here?

the target directory /vault doesn't exists in the zone yet
