ZFS-JAIL(8)		  BSD System Manager's Manual		   ZFS-JAIL(8)

NAME
     zfs-jail -- Attaches and detaches ZFS filesystems from FreeBSD jails.  A
     ZFS dataset can be	attached to a jail by using the	"zfs-jail jail"	sub-
     command. You cannot attach	a dataset to one jail and the children of the
     same dataset to another jail. You can also	not attach the root file sys-
     tem of the	jail or	any dataset which needs	to be mounted before the zfs
     rc	script is run inside the jail, as it would be attached unmounted until
     it	is mounted from	the rc script inside the jail. To allow	management of
     the dataset from within a jail, the jailed	property has to	be set and the
     jail needs	access to the /dev/zfs device. The quota property cannot be
     changed from within a jail. See jail(8) for information on	how to allow
     mounting ZFS datasets from	within a jail.

     A ZFS dataset can be detached from	a jail using the "zfs-jail unjail"
     subcommand.

     After a dataset is	attached to a jail and the jailed property is set, a
     jailed file system	cannot be mounted outside the jail, since the jail ad-
     ministrator might have set	the mount point	to an unacceptable value.

SYNOPSIS
     zfs jail jailid|jailname filesystem
     zfs unjail	jailid|jailname	filesystem

DESCRIPTION
     zfs jail jailid filesystem

       Attaches	the specified filesystem to the	jail identified	by JID jailid.
       From now	on this	file system tree can be	managed	from within a jail if
       the jailed property has been set. To use	this functuinality, the	jail
       needs the allow.mount and allow.mount.zfs parameters set	to 1 and the
       enforce_statfs parameter	set to a value lower than 2.

       See jail(8) for more information	on managing jails and configuring the
       parameters above.

     zfs unjail	jailid filesystem

       Detaches	the specified filesystem from the jail identified by JID
       jailid.
