This is something nexenta specific since nexenta does not provide a
volume rename. Since other solaris based distribution provides this
feature it is more clean in the zfsplugin:
nex1:vm-105-disk-1     raw 1073741824 105
nex1:base-105-disk-1   raw 1073741824 105

Also since the clone is a real zfs clone deleting nex1:vm-105-disk-1
will fail with the message: Cannot delete nex1:vm-105-disk-1 because of
depending clones. So to delete nex1:vm-105-disk-1 will require deletion
of nex1:base-105-disk-1 first.
