Shawn,

Using slices for ZFS pools is generally not recommended so I think
we minimized any command examples with slices:

# zpool create tank mirror c1t0d0s0 c1t1d0s0

Keep in mind that using the slices from the same disk for both UFS
and ZFS makes administration more complex. Please see the ZFS BP
section here:

http://www.solarisinternals.com/wiki/index.php/ZFS_Best_Practices_Guide#Storage_Pools

* The recovery process of replacing a failed disk is more complex when 
disks contain both ZFS and UFS file systems on
    slices.
  * ZFS pools (and underlying disks) that also contain UFS file systems 
on slices cannot be easily migrated to other
    systems by using zpool import and export features.
  * In general, maintaining slices increases administration time and 
cost. Lower your administration costs by
    simplifying your storage pool configuration model.
