Interresting... I wonder what differs between your system and mine. With my
dirt-simple stress-test:
server1# zpool create X25E c1t15d0
server1# zfs set sharenfs=rw X25E
server1# chmod a+w /X25E
server2# cd /net/server1/X25E
server2# gtar zxf /var/tmp/emacs-22.3.tar.gz
and a fully patched X4242

Just got back to revisit this issue and I just noticed that Sun has released
Software Release 3.0 for the X4240 series machines, with a couple of
interesting "fixes" per the "Product Notes" PDF:
* LSI MPT Firmware 1.27.02, MPTBIOS: 6.26.00
* LSI SAS Expander Firmware: 5.02.04
* Intel SSD Firmwar

I'm not sure of the 14-drive limit, sounds bogus to me and doesn't

The downside with the Adaptec is that it only supports 14 drives, and that all
drives that you want to be able to access from Solaris needs to be present at
boot time... The good thing about it is that it has a battery backed up cache
so it would be really nice to use for the slog devices.

This is the _exact_ same configuration that we use, and we are seeing the same
problem. We are tr
Of course. It's a bit impossible to configure the X4240 otherwise since all the
disk slots in the front is connected to one big LSISASx28 expander chip on the
disk backplane, which then is connected to one SAS HBA adapter using one (well,
two actually, but that's just for redundancy it seems - i

Do you have any other devices on the LSISAS1068E HBA?

Oh, another little benchmark information regarding that "test":
Doing that "gtar zxf emacs-22.3.tar.gz" very-scientific benchmark over NFS from
one X4240 to another and onto a ZFS filesystem consisting of two mirrored (by
ZFS) 146GB 10krpm SAS disks (on the Adaptec RAID controller with 256MB bat
I'm having a similar problem trying to get our X4240 servers to accept an SSD
disk that I wanted to use as a log device for our ZFS filesystems...
The easiest way I've found to generate a lot of error messages on the console
is to use the SSD disks as a lone disk in a ZFS pool, export it to anot
