If the filesystem is created in the global zone and added to the local zone via zonecfg, it may be assigned to more than one zone unless the mountpoint is set to legacy.

# zfs set mountpoint=legacy pool-name/filesystem-name

To import a ZFS filesystem within a zone:

# zonecfg -z <zone-name>
add fs
   set dir=mount-point
   set special=pool-name/filesystem-name
   set type=zfs
end
verify
commit
exit

Administrative rights for a filesystem can be granted to a local zone:

# zonecfg -z <zone-name>
add dataset
   set name=pool-name/filesystem-name
end
commit
exit
