Yes, that was the question. Sorry I wasn't more clear. Oops, ok. But the answer is still the same - umount calls "zfs unmount" when used on zfs filesystems. If you use truss, you'll see that it exec's /usr/lib/fs/zfs/umount which is a symlink to /sbin/zfs ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss

[zfs-discuss] "zfs unmount" versus "umount"?
Hi Folks, Is there any technical difference between using "zfs unmount" to unmount a ZFS filesystem versus the standard unix "umount" command? I always use "zfs unmount" but some of my colleagues still just use umount. Is there any reason to use one over the other? Thanks.
