*You can use zfs share.*
Usually setting share options via zfs set share (ex ABE or guestaccess)
is the easiest way
https://illumos.org/man/8/zfs
*You can also use sharemgr*
https://illumos.org/man/8/sharemgr
If you look ad Solaris admin pages, prefer those from Solaris 11.2 or 11.2.
They fit quite well foe Illumos. Solaris 11.4 share management is different.
*If you come from Linux or SAMBA:*
- there is no smb.conf, settings are done via sharectl ex display share
proprties: sharectl get smb
https://illumos.org/man/8/sharectl or are ZFS filesystem properties
(share/file ACL, aclmode, aclinherit)
Solaris/ Illumos SMB is NFS v4 ACL only
Avoid using simple permissions like 755 as they remove ACL inheritance
https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23824_01/html/821-1448/gbacb.html
Solaris/ Illumos SMB is using Windows SID instead Unix uid as user/ACL
reference,
No AD mapping uid <-> SID needed, AD ACL remain intact when you
move/restore a filesystem
Solaris/ Illumos adds Windows compatible SMB group management (with a
unique SID instead gid) that can contain other groups
https://illumos.org/man/8/smbadm
On Solaris/ Illumos SMB sharing is a strict property of a ZFS filesystem
(SAMBA can use simple folders, does not care about ZFS)
-> always working ZFS snaps?Windows previous versions without any settings

Hello,
I'm new to Illumos / OmniOS and looking at replacing my actual SAMBA
server (in workgroup) with OmniOS.
After reading a bunch of man pages and online documentation, I'm quite
puzzled. In Oracle Solaris 11.4, they say
The legacy|sharemgr|command is no longer available to manage SMB
shares. Instead, use the enhanced|zfs|,|share|, and|unshare|commands.
Also, the automatic sharing of SMB and NFS shares is managed by SMF
rather than by the legacy|/etc/dfs/dfstab|file, which has been removed.
What is the proper way to manage SMB shares on Illumos / OmniOS ?
Is it sharemgr or zfs (un)share ?
Thank you.
PS: I already asked this on omnios-discuss but was told I should ask
here (too).
