Hi all
we consider using ZFS for various storages (DB, etc). Most features are great, 
especially the ease of use.
Nevertheless, a few questions :

- we are using SAN disks, so most JBOD recommandations dont apply, but I did 
not find many experiences of zpool of a few terabytes on Luns... anybody ?

- we cannot remove a device from a pool. so no way of correcting the attachment 
of a 200 GB LUN on a 6 TB pool on which oracle runs ... am i the only one 
worrying ? 

- on a sun cluster, luns are seen on both nodes. Can we prevent mistakes like 
creating a pool on already assigned luns ? for example, veritas wants a "force" 
flag. With ZFS i can do :
node1: zpool create X add lun1 lun2
node2 : zpool create Y add lun1 lun2
and then, results are unexpected, but pool X will never switch again ;-) 
resource and zone are dead.

- what could be some interesting tools to test IO perfs ? did someone run 
iozone and publish baseline, modifications and according results ?

well, anyway, thanks to zfs team :D
