Will I have issues sharing .raw drives between containers?

Hey, I can't find a good way or information to do this other than copying the configuration from the containers. Will I run into any issues if I have multiple container working off the same .raw file in my zfs pool?

ie. I added this to my 101.conf
Code:
mp0: data:100/vm-100-disk-0.raw,mp=/data,size=10000G

While the "image" underlying format is RAW, it is presented to the container with a filesystem layer via a mountpoint.
As long as the containers "sharing" access to, essentially, filesystem are on the same host - you will be fine.
