Operating Systems Solaris Separate filesystems for CIFS? Post 302383183 by jlliagre on Monday 28th of December 2009 05:52:23 PM

The sharesmb property definitively apply to filesystems, not directories. It might be possible to use the traditional way (sharemgr command - /etc/dfs/dfstab) to share plain directories instead of filesystems but I never tried it. On the other hand, ZFS filesystems are almost as lightwheight as regular directories though so enabling the property and having it inherited by underlying datasets might be what you are looking for.
