Was this in a virtual machine?

I didn't actually see any screen shots there that appeared to be
time-slider related and a search on string `time-slider' had no
results. They may well be there, I didn't spend much time looking.

Well, yes but then its just as `beta' for other users who report
having the time-slider working well.  The issue reported in the
`Release notes' is about a missing service... seems it would be
missing for all installations of 151a then eh?

   ZFS time-slider and auto-snapshots not working due to missing
   zfssnap-roleadd SMF service

But yet a fair number of people have reported that it worked for them,
some even saying it worked out of the box...
