====== Using ZFS as storage in FreeBSD ======

1. Check your **/etc/rc.conf** 

<file ini rc.conf>
zfs_enable="YES"
</file>

2. Start service

<code bash>
# service zfs start
</code>


3. Create pool(s) on your drive(s)

<code bash>
# zpool create disk2 /dev/ada0
</code>

4. Create storage directory on pool and set it write permissions

<code bash>
# mkdir /disk2/wrstorage2
# chmod 777 /disk2/wrstorage2
</code>


5. Add this directory as WolfRecorder storage

<code bash> 
# zpool status
</code>

# apt install zfsutils-linux
# modprobe zfs

Create your pool and mount drive
<code bash>
# zpool create disk2 /dev/sdb
# zfs set mountpoint=/disk2 disk2
