Removing ZFS Delegated Permissions Examples

You can use the zfs unallow command to remove delegated permissions. For example, user cindy has create, destroy, mount, and snapshot permissions on the system1/cindy file system.

# zfs allow cindy create,destroy,mount,snapshot system1/home/cindy
# zfs allow system1/home/cindy
---- Permissions on system1/home/cindy ----------------------------------
Local+descendant permissions:
user cindy create,destroy,mount,snapshot

The following zfs unallow syntax removes user cindy's snapshot permission from the system1/home/cindy file system:

# zfs unallow cindy snapshot system1/home/cindy
# zfs allow system1/home/cindy
---- Permissions on system1/home/cindy ----------------------------------
Local+descendant permissions:
user cindy create,destroy,mount
cindy% zfs create system1/home/cindy/data
cindy% zfs snapshot system1/home/cindy@today
cannot create snapshot 'system1/home/cindy@today': permission denied

As another example, user mark has the following permissions on the system1/home/mark file system:

# zfs allow system1/home/mark
---- Permissions on system1/home/mark ----------------------------------
Local+descendant permissions:
user mark create,destroy,mount
-------------------------------------------------------------

The following zfs unallow syntax removes all permissions for user mark from the system1/home/mark file system:

# zfs unallow mark system1/home/mark

The following zfs unallow syntax removes a permission set on the system1 file system.

# zfs allow system1
---- Permissions on system1 ---------------------------------------------
Permission sets:
@myset clone,create,destroy,mount,promote,readonly,snapshot
Create time permissions:
create,destroy,mount
Local+descendant permissions:
group staff create,mount
# zfs unallow -s @myset system1
# zfs allow system1
---- Permissions on system1 ---------------------------------------------
Create time permissions:
create,destroy,mount
Local+descendant permissions:
group staff create,mount
