You couldn't (easily) do ZFS on Linux 3 years ago but it was available on OpenSolaris. Times are a changing... This is from the ZFS Wiki, toward the bottom of the page where it lists various OS's and support for ZFS:
Native ZFS on Linux
A native port of ZFS for Linux is in development. This ZFS on Linux port was produced at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) under Contract No. DE-AC52-07NA27344 (Contract 44) between the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and Lawrence Livermore National Security, LLC (LLNS) for the operation of LLNL. It has been approved for release under LLNL-CODE-403049. As of June 2012, the port is in release candidate status for version 0.6.0, which supports mounting filesystems.
