Besides the questions covered below, you may find Documentation and OpenZFS on OS X helpful. Both articles contain a good deal of information about OpenZFS on OS X.
Contents
General
Q) What is OpenZFS on OS X?
A) See the article entitled OpenZFS on OS X.
Q) What does O3X mean?
A) O3X = O O O X = OpenZFS on OS X.
Q) What version of ZFS do you use?
A) OpenZFS. Pool version 5000. File system version 5. Pool version 5000 is pool version 28 plus support for feature flags. We support pool version 5000 and pool versions less than or equal to 28. We do not support the closed-source Oracle Solaris ZFS pool versions 29 and up.
Administration
Q) How can I get rid of "The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer"?
A) See the article entitled Suppressing the annoying popup.
Q) How can I access the .zfs snapshot directories?
A) You need to set snapdir visible and manually mount a snapshot.
$ sudo zfs set snapdir=visible tank/bob $ sudo zfs mount tank/bob@yesterday $ ls -l /tank/bob/.zfs/snapshot/yesterday/
Q) Is .zfs snapdir auto-mounting supported?
A) No, not at this time. You must manually "zfs mount" snapshots manually to see them in the snapdir.
Q) OK, I manually mounted my snapshot but still cannot see it in Finder. What gives?
A) Currently mounted snapshots are only visible from Terminal, not from Finder.
$ ls -l /tank/bob/.zfs/snapshot/yesterday/
Interoperability
Q) Can I import my ZEVO pools?
A) Yes. O3X can import pool version 28, which means it can import ZEVO pools.
Q) Can I import my MacZFS pools?
A) Yes. O3X can import pool version 8, which means it can import MacZFS pools.
