You will have to copy data.
Also keep in mind that ZFS is supported in Sun Cluster 3.2 which is
not out yet (should be really soon now).

1. those boxes can work a JBODs but not in a clustered environment.

2. the configurations of arrays - well, it depends. I would only
   suggest to do redundancy at zfs level at least. For some
   performance numbers on those arrays with zfs see the list archives.
