What issues, if any, are likely to surface with using Solaris inside vmware as a guest os, if I choose to use ZFS?
I'm assuming that ZFS's ability to maintain data integrity will prevail and protect me from any problems that the addition of vmware might introduce. Are there likely to be any issues with disk drive IO performance? The concern here is with comments on how ZFS likes to "own spindles" so that it can properly schedule I/O and maximise performance. Any other gotchas, such as the extra vmware layer doing buffering that ZFS isn't aware of, etc? If there are problems, are they likely to be any better/different when using ZFS and Solaris as a Xen domU?
