Anybody using the in-kernel CIFS is also concerned with the ACLs, and I
think that's the big issue.

Especially in a paranoid organisation with 100s of ACEs!

Also, snapshots.  For my purposes, I find snapshots at some level a very
important part of the backup process.  My old scheme was to rsync from
primary ZFS pool to backup ZFS pool, and snapshot both pools (with
somewhat different retention schedules).  My new scheme, forced by the ACL
issues, is to use ZFS send/receive (but I haven't been able to make it
work yet), including snapshots.

I'm sure the folks here can help with that.

I have been using a two stage backup process with my main client, send/receive to a backup pool and spool to tape for off site archival.

I use a pair (on connected, one off site) of removable drives as single volume pools for my own backups via send/receive.
