ZFS - Pools - Create a Dataset within the Pool

A Dataset is a Filesystem, or in essence a Directory.

sudo zfs create testpool/dataset

NOTE: The size of the Dataset does not need to be specified.

  • The free space is handled by ZFS.
  • So there is no need to have to resize partitions when you start running out of space on one.
  • If more than one disk is being used, this also provides software RAID features like mirror, stripe and parity.
