Yep. Although I *really* recommend creating individual file systems, 
e.g. if you have 1,000 users on your server, I'd create 1,000 file 
systems with a quota of  6 GB each.  Easier to handle, more flexible to 
use, easier to backup, it allows better use of snapshots and it's easier 
to migrate single users to other servers.

Nope.

Don't mix up pools and file systems. your pool of 7TB will only be 
filled to a maximum of 6TB, but the file system will be 100% full. which 
shouldn't impact your overall performance.

Yep, you got it.
