Upgrade Fuse from Deb8 Jessie?

I have been having alot of problems with the "Transport Endpoint Not Connected" error, which revolves around mhddfs, and the other fuse filesystems. I have found that there are bugs in the version of fuse and libfuse2 packages that are included in debian wheezy, but they are corrected in the version in jessie. I know that upgrading 2.2.4 to jessie is not supported, but has anyone had experience in just upgrading the dependencies for fuse? I am working on doing it in a VM, but was curious if this road has already been traveled. Thanks

So, to do that, I just goto the OMV Extras, then Kernel Tab, and click the Install Backports Kernel + at the top? Do I also need the headers?

Awesome, thank you both. I'm hoping this stabilizes my file system issues. Makes it really hard to rsync the backups when the file system goes offline at random!

I done that awhile back, trying to solve the issues... just forgot to mention it Side question, I currently have 3 drives in the pool, which are mostly full, is there a way to re-balance or spread the data across the drives when adding new drive to the pool, or would you just let it put everything on the new.
