ZFS volumes may be used as swap devices. After creating the volume with the zfs create -V command set up and enable the swap area using the mkswap(8) and swapon(8) commands. Do not swap to a file on a ZFS file system. A ZFS swap file configuration is not supported. SUBCOMMANDS

By contrast, the zfs(8) available property describes how much new data can be written to ZFS filesystems/volumes. The zpool free property is not generally useful for this purpose, and can be substantially more than the zfs available space.

mount.zfs - mount a ZFS filesystem SYNOPSIS. mount.zfs [-sfnvh] [-o options] dataset mountpoint DESCRIPTION mount.zfs is part of the zfsutils package for Linux. It is a helper program that is usually invoked by the mount(8) or zfs(8) commands to mount a ZFS dataset.

zfs-module-parameters - ZFS module parameters DESCRIPTION. Description of the different parameters to the ZFS module. Module parameters. dbuf_cache_max_bytes (ulong) Maximum size in bytes of the dbuf cache. When 0 this value will default to 1/2^dbuf_cache_shift (1/32) of the target ARC size, otherwise the provided value in bytes will be used.
