I'm considering creating an Ubuntu 18.04 virtual machine with a zfs root file system on my freenas 11.3 system (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ZFS and https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/wiki/Ubuntu). I want to make sure that this is not a terrible idea. I'm hoping that I will be able to schedule periodic zfs snapshot tasks and cloud sync backups of the VM's file system from freenas.
Has anyone tried anything like this before?
Any gotchas to avoid?
Thanks!
