If this doesn't work add the following to /etc/rc.d/zfs start_main so
that it will mount the zfs volumes after the module has been loaded:

        # Mount ZVOLs with property org.freebsd:late=on.
        zfs list -H -o org.freebsd:late,name -t volume | \
        while read state name; do
                case "${state}" in
                [oO][nN])
                        mount /dev/zvol/${name}
                        ;;
                esac
        done

Edit /etc/fstab to add noauto to each ZVOLs, and then add the
"org.freebsd:late" attribute to each ZVOLs:

zfs set org.freebsd:late=on data_dg/export/ufs
