Hi! To interchange Data between the systems you could - install the zfs packages on ubuntu, the prepared ones work quite well, - create a zfs zpool on a spare drive (usb stick e.g.) with option -d to make it compatble. (you can enable features later if you find you need them and are supported by both systems.) Then you can zpool import -f newpool from either OS.
These features i thnk i enabled later on my shared "dhome" zfs pool: zpool set feature@async_destroy=enabled dhome zpool set feature@empty_bpobj=enabled dhome zpool set feature@lz4_compress=enabled dhome zpool set feature@multi_vdev_crash_dump=enabled dhome zpool set feature@spacemap_histogram=enabled dhome zpool set feature@enabled_txg=enabled dhome zpool set feature@hole_birth=enabled dhome zpool set feature@extensible_dataset=enabled dhome zpool set feature@embedded_data=enabled dhome zpool set feature@bookmarks=enabled dhome zpool set feature@filesystem_limits=enabled dhome zpool set feature@large_blocks=enabled dhome Don't rely on this list and recheck, or leave the features disabled to be shure.
