ZFS mount to VM

[0cool]

I have created a ZFS pool and been successful in mounting to my LXC containers. Now, I am trying to make the data available in virtual machines. My goal is to avoid NFS/SMB to keep local network traffic down. Can I simply add the filesystem via the conf file? Will it mess up my existing data?

For example:
scsi1: zfs:tank/media_,size=1000G

No, the well supported way is NFS/SMB. If you want to be a little bit more expermental you could google for "virtfs" or "9p".

Got it and thank you for the suggestion!
