when playing with ZFS to try and come up with some standards for using it in our environment I also disliked having the pool directory mounted when my intentions were not to us it, but subdivide the space with in it.
Simple fix: zpool create data <blah> zfs create data/share zfs create data/oracle zfs set mountpoint=/export/share data/share zfs set mountpoint=/oracle data/oracle zfs set mountpoint=none data It is semi-clean - you have to remember to set mountpoints if you create any more children under data, and zones tended not to like importing datasets that had the mountpoint set to "none".
