Ed,
I've actually had a guy at Symantec contact me through the mailing list and say that there are binaries available which should resolve this issue. I'm beginning to think that the support rep didn't know what the deal was with ZFS support because he actually sent me the document you referenced as a way to demonstrate that ZFS is NOT supported. When I looked at the document, it seemed to fly in the face of what he was telling me.

I wonder why the Symantec support rep I talked with yesterday made it sound like there were no plans to support ZFS filesystem backups in future releases unless a lot more people pushed for it ? Could he be referring to officially supporting ZFS rather than fixing the ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES issue ? I would challenge that claim - I suspect the support rep you talked to didn't know what he/she was talking about. After all, ZFS ACLs are officially supported as documented in the client compatibility technote at ftp://exftpp.symantec.com/pub/support/products/NetBackup_Enterprise_Serv er/278064.pdf. There's nothing in the technote that says that ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES will fail to discover ZFS volumes. That said, since Symantec acknowledged the bug with an ETRACK, and fixed it, it is obvious that they're is committed to supporting ZFS. .../Ed Ed Wilts, RHCE, BCFP, BCSD, SCSP, SCSE [EMAIL PROTECTED]
