Hey,
I have a main data set lets call it M1 which has numerous subdata sets let S1, S2, S3 S4 Sn.... and I usually mount these subdata sets in jails. As i build and destroy a number of jails each week I though i could mount just the main data set as it would save me not having to mount all the sub data sets and also the jail would recognise it all as the same data set and I would hopefully get faster speeds when moving/copying files between the subdata sets.
The issue I am facing is when i mount the main data set on a jail all the directories are there for the sub data sets but they are all empty where as if i mount just the sub data sets they contain the data. I can create directories and files in the main dataset and the subdata sets directories but if I create something in the subdata sets these can not be seen from other jails that have just the subdata sets mounted. I have given full permissions to the main data set so it should not be a permissions issue.
Is this by design that sub data sets can not be accessed via jails if a dataset higher up the tree is mounted?
