Re: [libvirt-users] ZFS: creating a pool in a created zfs does not work, only when using the whole zfs-pool.

Hi, I’m new here so apologies if this has been answered before. I have a box that uses ZFS for everything (ubuntu 17.04) and I want to create a libvirt pool on that. My ZFS pool is named „big" So i do: > zfs create big/zpool > virsh pool-define-as --name zpool --source-name big/zpool --type zfs > virsh pool-start zpool > virsh pool-autostart zpool > virsh pool-list > virsh vol-create-as --pool zpool --name test1 --capacity 1G > virsh vol-list zpool Everything seems to work (no error message, vol-list shows the created volume, I can see the volume via zfs list -t all). -BUT- I cannot use that volume via virt-manager

and after a short while it’s no longer listed via virsh vol-list zpool. The very same thing works

as expected if I create a new zfs pool which I hand into libvirt. So instead of creating a pool from "big/zpool“ I create a pool names „somepool“ on a free device and -voila- everything works. Hope I did make myself clear?
