Do you need the data within /jail anymore?  I sent another followup on
how to set the 'mounted' property to 'no'.

In either case, the following will unmount the dataset:

zfs umount pool/dataset

Or if you're absolutely certain you will not need the data within that
dataset, you could do:

zfs destroy pool/dataset

Of course, replace 'pool' with the zfs pool, and 'dataset' with the name
of the dataset you wish to remove (in this case, 'jail').

zfs(1M) has all (most) of the available commands available.
