Ashman, what version of Unraid are you using? If it's prior to 6.12.0-rc4+, then you won't be able to add shares to the pool through the GUI. But you can do it yourself through other ways, 1) The easiest is just to make symlink in a standard share to the dataset on the array. Ex if you have a share called music at /mnt/user/music and a dataset z_music on the a zpool "tank" mounted at /mtn/tank/z_music, then "ln -s /mnt/tank/z_music /mnt/user/music/zfs_music_link" makes a symlink in /mnt/user/music to your dataset. If you want to later remove the symlink, use "unlink /mnt/user/music/zfs_music_link" 2) add smb options in Settings>Smb options to manually create a share using samba configuration to some dataset.

I don't think you need to actually create datasets yourself, just create shares in 6.12.0-rc4+ and have the pool as primary or secondary. Unraid can make shares as datasets.

This is working well for me, you can mount the pool anywhere then make standard unraid shares that will exist only the usb you're using to start the array. To access the zpool dataset make symlinks in the unraid user shares to the dataset locations. works great for sharing. credit spaceinvader for this symlink idea. Share: Symlink in user/photos Mapping share

I have this MB with E-2246G and haven't had any strange lockups except for impi dying on me until I disabled inventory, logging in the bios. BMC 1.8 and am using the L2.32 bios. Docker is macvlan.

Is it possible to set up Unraid with only the usb boot and a zfspool? With no array? If Unraid needs a disk can this be emulated from the zpool?
