I was doing an upgrade of vboxsvc on one of my machines and I noticed
the zvolrights smf:

Are people using that successfully to be able to run VirtualBox VMs
under a non-root level user?
Right now I use iscsi targets to expose my zvols, but being able to
access them directly would be a lot easier to manage.
Well, I did run it in testing (but use more portable files or
dual-booted raw partitions for "production"), and I believe
Edward Ned Harvey used his (different) script to set rights
and he used zvols a lot more, though with a different solution
to maintain the access rights.
So far nobody reported use of this script/service for their
non-root VMs, so I can't say how well it works outside of my
greenhouse lab testing. Feel free to be the first reporter :)
But Ned's example may prove that generally such usage exists.

Hi Jim.
I decided to just go with the iscsi targets for now.
Thanks for the vboxsvc, it works great.
Geoff
