Using the more recent Catalina 0.8.0 build, I have no issues with the main zfs pool and filesystem in any of my initial tests...
However "Volumes" don't seem to work - or I can't figure out where to find them. It's quite possible and likely it's me being a dolt.
Under previous versions (include 1.9.4) I had created a few volumes in my zfs pool (via: "zfs create -V 1.5tb zfsPool/zfsPhotoVolume") which created /dev/disk__ entries for each zfs volume created. So a "diskutil list" would show something like: "/dev/disk12 (external, virtual)". I would then formatted that resulting volume as HFS+ On each reboot, the pool would import, the volumes would appear as /dev/disk__ entries and Catalina (or earlier) would auto-mount those virtual volumes that had valid OS X filesystems (HFS+, FAT, etc) on them.
Under 0.8.0 while I can import the pool and mount the main filesystem, and zfs list shows the volumes exist, I can't find a way to mount those volumes under Catalina. Doing a diskutil list doesn't show any /dev/disk__ entries for the zfs volumes on the pool once the pool is imported. (aka, in the example above under 0.8.0 a diskutil list won't show "/dev/disk12 (external, virtual)")
Where do volumes show up under 0.8.0 if not as external virtual /dev/disk__ entries? Maybe I missed them in one of the /var/run/disk/__ folders? But Catalina doesn't seem to "see" the volumes and trigger an auto-mount of the virtual device however it's working.
Or are volumes no longer supported under 0.8.0?
