Hi!
I’m working with customer who is interested in ZFS support on Linux platform (Debian specifically). Now I’ve been browsing through docs and as I suspected ZFS is not a supported FS for Guest OS file restore with FREL.
https://documentation.commvault.com/2022e/expert/32330_live_file_recovery_for_vmware.html
So naturally FS iDA is the way to go. I was surprised when I checked the requirements page and wasn’t able to find ZFS as supported FS on Linux platform
It is however supported on platforms like FreeBSD and Solaris
I’ve been curious so I tested this on FREL ova with some additional packages allowing for ZFS to work on OS side, but even then browse is not working on ZFS volumes. I also tested this on Linux FS iDA and had some more luck, cause I was able to backup and successfully restore some data from ZFS volume.
So what I would like to ask is if ZFS is really not supported on Linux OS or is it just a piece missing from documentation?
