I'd be surprised if anyone is using zfs/fuse/linux combinations
seriously. Why not just run your archive server on opensolaris or
freebsd where zfs runs natively? Or if you want to pretend it is a
linux distro, perhaps nexenta http://www.nexenta.org/os or their
commercial nexentastor version would work. They have a mostly-ubuntu
userland running on an opensolaris kernel.
