I've been using ZFS on my home media server for about a year now. There's a lot 
I like about Solaris, but the rest of the computers in my house are Macs. Now 
that the Mac has experimental read/write support for ZFS, I'd like to migrate 
my zpool to my Mac Pro. I primarily use the machine to serve my iTunes library 
and my Solaris samba shares never really played well with iTunes. 

The problem is that I upgraded to Solaris nv84 a while ago and bumped my zpool 
to version 9 (I think) at that time. The Macintosh guys only support up to 
version 8. There doesn't seem to be too much activity on the ZFS project at 
macosforge.com so I'm guessing support for v9 isn't right around the corner.

I read the zpool man page and I know it says that there's no way to downgrade, 
but I'm grasping at straws here. My next alternative is to try to run Solaris 
in VMWare on the Mac, but I'd rather not have to do that.

Thanks for the help,

Dave
