Thanks for the heads up. Also, with regards to legacy booting, it’s only an issue if using it for filesystem mounts, such as /var/, /home/, etc. Things outside of that, such as /kvm/ may or may not be affected, all depending on when your starting services need the mounts.

That may be because the zfs pool I am using is all shares (NFS and SMB) and virtual machines (run using libvirt/KVM on the same server), and I am not using ZFS for the OS files (on a separate ext4 mdadm mirror)

On my Ubuntu 12.04.1 server I didn’t need to create a dummy export in order to get NFS shares working – the supplied /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server checks for the existing of /etc/exports, but doesn’t care what is in. The file exists by default but contains only comments, which is enough.

Similarly, I am using the mountall from the Ubuntu ZFS PPA and that seems be working fine without changing ZFS_MOUNT in /etc/default/zfs

Therefore the only change I needed was to change ZFS_SHARE to yes in /etc/default/zfs
