What exactly do you mean by "work"?

If you mean "use as a target for disk-based storage volumes," it's just 
another fscking file system, it will work.

If you mean "can Bacula read files from it," then, again, it's just 
another fscking file system, of course it will work.

ZFS is being used for both.

What magic are you expecting?
