[Newbie] Is CentOS supporting ZFS?

[Anda]

Hey guys,

I want to move over CentOS and use the docker support for my NAS.
Im currently running FreeNAS on my NAS but I want something reliable(had tons of problems with FreeNAS).

Currently I have a main pool where all my Media is stored. This pool is setuped via ZFS.

So my question is can I migrate that in CentOS? The better question is CentOS supporting ZFS?

PS: Sorry for that offtopic question :>

Apparently yes you can ,it does support zfs:
Does centOS support ZFS ?

More properly, CentOS (and Linux at large) does not support ZFS, but ZFS supports Linux (and CentOS) somewhat.

You can: I'm using ZFS+snapshot for backup purposes.
I used this to install modules: https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/wiki/RHEL-%26-CentOS
It seems a bit slow - it may be the setup, my ignorance, or maybe it's just slower.

No.

There is a ZFS on Linux project that allows you to install it. If you do and it breaks then you get to keep all the pieces.
