Your intention is not clear to me

As ZFS is not a cluster filesystem, you cannot allow to initiator to connect the same Target/LUN at the same time without an additional cluster layer.

Is your intention:
1.) An application or database server is connected to the LUN and use it to store data. If the server fails, a backup system connects the same LUN to continue to offer services with same data. (No concurrent LUN access)


2.) An application or database server is connected to the LUN and use it to store data. If the Storage fails, the server connects the an mirrored LUN on another storage to continue to offer services with same data. (No concurrent LUN access, LUN auto failover)

3.) An application or database server is connected to the LUN and use it to store data. A second system connects the same LUN to offer services with same data. (Concurrent LUN access)

hi,


We'd like to move a HA DB deployment to SmartOS. The old deplpyment is: a DB server is deployed on SAN storage, and two application servers connect to the DB server and synchronize access(read & write) to it.


We plan to re-deploy in this way on SmartOS:

1. make a raid10 zpool on a SmartOS machine, create a volume on the zpool and expose the volume as an iSCSI target using COMSTAR;

2. deploy the two application servers on two KVM zones, and both connect to the iSCSI target as an iSCSI initiator.

3. deploy the DB server on the iSCSI target device.


Questions:

1. is the re-deployment feasible?

2. if a native zone is preferable for the application server, how can we synchronize two native zones' access to a same iSCSI target?


Your comments will be appreciated.
