SUMMARY: zfs

I had many responses but Gerhard Weick was the first to hit it on the head.
The user "zfs_test" didn't have permission to create directories under
/data-pool. I decided to use sudo instead of ACL's to keep it simple.

Originial question:

Responses:

Hi Tom,

for a mountpoint is a directory, so you must have the permission to
create the directory, this is the write permission in the upper
directory (e.g.:
  chmod A+user:zfs_test:add_subdirectory:fd:allow /data-pool
)

ciao
