ZFS snapshots can be a fast and easy way to perform backups.

Napp-IT has a commercial (Pro) module available that performs ZFS snapshots and sends them to another ZFS server.

Snapshots are automatically mounted under /$MOUNTPOINT/.zfs/snapshot/$SNAPSHOTNAME.

Example with nested ZFS filesystem showing an NFS storage repository containing VHDs:

/toplevel/midlevel/bottomlevel/.zfs/snapshot/job-name-job-ID_year.month.day.hour.min.sec/nfs_SR_ID/

If you don't want to muck with the .zfs hidden folder, you could also:

1. clone the snapshot
2. copy out your files/folders that need recovering
3. destroy the clone
