Well, I guess you could still try using Tim Foster's original ZFS  
Automatic Backup service: <http://blogs.sun.com/timf/entry/zfs_automatic_for_the_people

I don't know off-hand whether it'll still work on 2008.11 (or if  
they'll be confused by the presence of Time Slider on the same  
machine)-- I suspect it might need a bit of tweaking now.  But it  
might at least serve as a decent starting point for your own solution  
until Time Slider supports backups as well as snapshots.

Cheeri,
Calum.
