set zfs default mountpoint

[peacepipe]

Dear all,

I made a mistake when I tried to set a new mountpoint with "zfs set mountpoint=/newpool tank"

After that I realized that my Sharing (SMB/NFS) mounts aren't working anymore. It's no big deal but annoying to set all my shares to the new mountpoint.
So I tried to set the mount point to the default: "zfs set mountpoint=/mnt tank" BUT after checking the directory the zfs dataset was set to /mnt/mnt/tank and not to /mnt/tank. I tried also "zfs set mountpoint=/ tank" ... well then I see the content behind the "tank"

ls /mnt/ shows my datasets... So how should I set the mountpoint to get it normal: "/mnt/tank/dataset1"?

The mountpoint is prefixed from the zpool property altroot, which can only be set on creation or import. Export your pool, and then reimport via the GUI.
