One of my child folders is not showing up in my datasets. I have a share setup for it. Also, I can view it when connecting to server via my mac. I checked the ACL, but didn’t see anything wrong.
There should be another child folder call “mike” below “data2”.
Post #4 is probably the best reply in that thread.
I was able to view them yesterday and the day before that and so forth. All of a sudden it started today. Beside I do have a dataset for that one.
zfs list -r -t fs tank
Where? In the SMB shares page or the datasets page? The SMB shares page will show you datasets and folders.
In the datasets.
Can you post screenshots of your entire Datasets screen and the Shares screen
The CLI commands are run in the System, Shell or you can run them on the console if you are connected using SSH (secure shell).
If you run any CLI commands, you can copy and paste the results back using Preformatted Text. (</>) on the toobar above where you post replies.
Example on my system of the command winnielinnie posted and my results in preformated text

truenas_admin@truenas[~]$
Here are the two screen shots you asked for. Is there some settings that I need to change to use the shell? Every time I type when you suggested, it comes back saying command not found. i am new to this Truenas, so please bear with me. I am trying to learn it the best I can. Thanks!
Are you in the GUI Shell? System then Shell? Attached screenshot from mine. I just typed zfs list and hit return and it gave back a bunch of data.
What version of Scale are you on and are you using ‘truenas_admin’ as the user?
You should be able to at least run some sort of command and get a result. Try pwd to see the present working directory.
In my installations the truenas_admin account does not have /sbin in $PATH.
You can do /sbin/zfs list or sudo zfs list.

There is currently no dataset called mike.
You can check if you had one previously using the following command:
sudo zpool history tank | grep mike
Are you missing any data?

Here is the screen shot of the result. Not missing any data.
In the System, Shell you can copy and paste data. Pasting the data back here using Preformatted text makes it more readable. (</>) on the toolbar above. Ctrl+e will also bring up the option.
The results of using the preformatted text are like post #6. It allows us to expand the window also.

The dataset was created yesterday and 1.5 minutes after creation it was deleted. The audit log (System->Audit) should also confirm that.

No folder with the name “mike”?
ls -lh /mnt/tank
