Moving a zvol

[byroncollege]

Hi,
Is it possible to move a zvol.
Say I created a zvol under /mnt/tank/storage called disk1
It now shows up as /mnt/tank/storage/disk1 in the WebGUI and /dev/zvol/tank/storage/disk1 in the Shell.

It also can inherit permissions from that dataset tree.

Can I create another dataset, say /mnt/tank/iSCSI, and move the zvol into that so it now inherits the settings from the dataset tree?

Or do I have to snapshot and do a zfs send/receive on the localhost?

Cheers

Out of curiosity, why the desire for the move?

It should be possible to move zvols, same as any other dataset, within a pool with `zfs rename` command.

Thank you

If that's done, will Freenas see the changed name? Or does it need to be done via CLI after exporting the dataset via GUI, making CLI name change, and then importing via GUI?

I seems like not cached and I can see the change seen in UI immediately.

PS: There was a bug with renaming of opened zvols that I've fixed yesterday. The fix will be in next 9.10 update.

My bad, nevermind. I was thinking about renaming a Pool, not a Dataset.
