Challenge
Veeam Agent for Solaris v2 does not back up ZFS snapshots.Cause
1) Veeam Agent for Oracle Solaris v2 cannot back up ZFS snapshots that are explicitly specified as a source.2) This is a by-design limitation from Oracle. By default, the .zfs directory is not visible when listing directory contents. This setting prevents backup software from inadvertently backing up snapshots in addition to new data.
Solution
1) Veeam Agent for Oracle Solaris will not back up ZFS snapshots if the corresponding snapshot directory was explicitly specified as a job source; you should either specify a parent directory as a source instead, or contact Veeam technical support team to obtain a fix.2) Make a filesystem snapshot directory visible.
