When I was using linux, I backed up my home directory (which contained all my critical data) using tar. I backed up my linux partition using partimage. These backups were put on dvd's. That way I could restore (and have) even if the hard drive completely went belly up. I would like to duplicate this scheme using zfs commands. I know I can copy a snapshot to a dvd but can I recover using just the snapshot or does it rely on the zfs file system on my hard drive being ok?
