Windows Drive letters
There is a new dataset property called driveletter
driveletter YES NO off | on | A-Z
By default, the value of driveletter is -, which means
If pool's root dataset: driveletter = on If other dataset: driveletter = off
$ ./zfs.exe mount tank E:\ tank/lower tank/lower
This effectively means the pool itself will get the first available driveletter, for example, E:, and a lower dataset will be mounted inside the pool. E:/lower.
If the root's dataset is set to driveletter = off it will mount the pool inside your default OS volume.
zfs set driveletter=off tank zpool export tank zpool import tank zfs mount tank C:\tank
If a lower dataset is set to driveletter = on it will also get a driveletter. The pool is assumed to be on here.
zfs set driveletter=on tank/lower zpool export tank zpool import tank zfs mount tank E:\ tank/lower F:\
You can also explicitly set a driveletter, by using driveletter=A-Z
zfs set driveletter=Z tank zpool export tank zpool import tank zfs mount tank Z:\
