Solaris ZFS Administration Guide

ZFS Delegated Administration

Solaris Express Community Edition, build 69: In this release, you can delegate fine-grained permissions to perform ZFS administration tasks to non-privileged users.

You can use the zfs allow and zfs unallow commands to grant and remove permissions.

You can modify the ability to use delegated administration with the pool's delegation property. For example:


# zpool get delegation users
NAME  PROPERTY    VALUE       SOURCE
users  delegation  on          default
# zpool set delegation=off users
# zpool get delegation users
NAME  PROPERTY    VALUE       SOURCE
users  delegation  off         local

By default, the delegation property is enabled.

For more information, see Chapter 9, ZFS Delegated Administration and zfs(1M).
