ZFS-ALLOW(8) System Manager's Manual ZFS-ALLOW(8)

zfs-allowDelegates ZFS administration permission for the file systems to non-privileged users.

zfs allow [-dglu] user|group[,user|group]... perm|@setname[,perm|@setname]... filesystem|volume

zfs allow [-dl] -e|everyone perm|@setname[,perm|@setname]... filesystem|volume

zfs allow -c perm|@setname[,perm|@setname]... filesystem|volume

zfs allow -s @setname perm|@setname[,perm|@setname]... filesystem|volume

zfs unallow [-dglru] user|group[,user|group]... [perm|@setname[,perm|@setname]...] filesystem|volume

zfs unallow [-dlr] -e|everyone [perm|@setname[,perm|@setname]...] filesystem|volume

zfs unallow [-r] -c [perm|@setname[,perm|@setname]...] filesystem|volume

zfs unallow [-r] -s @setname [perm|@setname[,perm|@setname]...] filesystem|volume

zfs allow filesystem|volume
Displays permissions that have been delegated on the specified filesystem or volume. See the other forms of zfs allow for more information.

Delegations are supported under Linux with the exception of , , , , , and . These permissions cannot be delegated because the Linux mount(8) command restricts modifications of the global namespace to the root user.

zfs allow [-dglu] user|group[,user|group]... perm|@setname[,perm|@setname]... filesystem|volume
 
zfs allow [-dl] -e|everyone perm|@setname[,perm|@setname]... filesystem|volume
Delegates ZFS administration permission for the file systems to non-privileged users.
Allow only for the descendent file systems.
|everyone
Specifies that the permissions be delegated to everyone.
group[,group]...
Explicitly specify that permissions are delegated to the group.
Allow "locally" only for the specified file system.
user[,user]...
Explicitly specify that permissions are delegated to the user.
user|group[,user|group]...
Specifies to whom the permissions are delegated. Multiple entities can be specified as a comma-separated list. If neither of the -gu options are specified, then the argument is interpreted preferentially as the keyword everyone, then as a user name, and lastly as a group name. To specify a user or group named "everyone", use the -g or -u options. To specify a group with the same name as a user, use the -g options.
perm|@setname[,perm|@setname]...
The permissions to delegate. Multiple permissions may be specified as a comma-separated list. Permission names are the same as ZFS subcommand and property names. See the property list below. Property set names, which begin with @, may be specified. See the -s form below for details.

If neither of the -dl options are specified, or both are, then the permissions are allowed for the file system or volume, and all of its descendents.

Permissions are generally the ability to use a ZFS subcommand or change a ZFS property. The following permissions are available:

NAME             TYPE           NOTES

                                to create snapshots necessary to
                                'zfs diff'.

                                (see 'zfs load-key' and 'zfs unload-key').

                                'zfs change-key'.
mount            subcommand     Allows mount/umount of ZFS datasets
promote          subcommand     Must also have the 'mount' and 'promote'
                                ability in the origin file system
receive          subcommand     Must also have the 'mount' and 'create'

rollback         subcommand     Must also have the 'mount' ability
send             subcommand
share            subcommand     Allows sharing file systems over NFS
                                or SMB protocols
snapshot         subcommand     Must also have the 'mount' ability

zfs allow -c perm|@setname[,perm|@setname]... filesystem|volume
Sets "create time" permissions. These permissions are granted (locally) to the creator of any newly-created descendent file system.
zfs allow -s @setname perm|@setname[,perm|@setname]... filesystem|volume
Defines or adds permissions to a permission set. The set can be used by other zfs allow commands for the specified file system and its descendents. Sets are evaluated dynamically, so changes to a set are immediately reflected. Permission sets follow the same naming restrictions as ZFS file systems, but the name must begin with @, and can be no more than 64 characters long.
zfs unallow [-dglru] user|group[,user|group]... [perm|@setname[,perm|@setname]...] filesystem|volume
 
zfs unallow [-dlr] -e|everyone [perm|@setname[,perm|@setname]...] filesystem|volume
 
zfs unallow [-r] -c [perm|@setname[,perm|@setname]...] filesystem|volume
Removes permissions that were granted with the zfs allow command. No permissions are explicitly denied, so other permissions granted are still in effect. For example, if the permission is granted by an ancestor. If no permissions are specified, then all permissions for the specified user, group, or everyone are removed. Specifying everyone (or using the -e option) only removes the permissions that were granted to everyone, not all permissions for every user and group. See the zfs allow command for a description of the -ldugec options.
Recursively remove the permissions from this file system and all descendents.
zfs unallow [-r] -s @setname [perm|@setname[,perm|@setname]...] filesystem|volume
Removes permissions from a permission set. If no permissions are specified, then all permissions are removed, thus removing the set entirely.
