(I'm posting here because I think this may be more of a zfs issue rather
than a bhyve issue)

Hi,

I would like to create a zfs filesystem within my bhyve (FreeBSD 10.1 as
the guest and host) allowing users of the VM to run zfs send/receive
commands on the zfs filesystem within their bhyve VM.

Is this possible and what is/are the methods and options for creating the
zfs filesystem (or volume) within the VM? If there is a way to do this,
would any of the proposed methods depend on whether the VM lives in a file
versus a zfs volume? My VM is file-based.

Thanks!
