I want to test zfs file sharing capabilities using a virtual machine. Is this possible because I don't seem to get a prompt during installation to select a zfs file system.

Is it possible to install solaris 11 with zfs root file system in virtual box guest?

Solaris 11 does not ask you if you want ZFS root because it has no other choice - only ZFS root is supported for Solaris 11 installs - UFS is relegated to supporting data disks only.
See Oracle Solaris 11 File System Changes for more details.

Yup, I eventually figured that out... A bit like looking for your glasses when they are on your face ! – Duncan Groenewald – 2014-07-15T11:28:21.003
