It also wasn't supported for HFS nor zFS the last time I checked (though that could have changed). But TDMF is supported AFAIK. You can still use TDMF if going to a higher geometry also but it won't help for logically consolidating volumes. Other than that, you have to do it the old fashioned way and bring down the application(s) using the file system, unmount it, and move it.
