If you do want multi-reader,
multi-writer block access (and not use iSCSI) then QFS is what you
want.

You can use ZFS pools are lumps of disk under SAM-QFS:-

I successfully mocked this up on VirtualBox on my laptop for a customer.

Hi,
is it possible to link multiple machines into one storage pool using zfs?
Depends what you mean by this.
Multiple machines can not import the same ZFS pool at the same time,
doing so *will* cause corruption and ZFS tries hard to protect against
multiple imports.
However ZFS can use iSCSI LUNs from multiple target machines for its
disks that make up a given pool.
ZFS volumes (ZVOLS) can also be used as iSCSI targets and thus shared
out to multiple machines.
ZFS file systems can be shared over NFS and CIFS and thus shared by
multiple machines.
ZFS pools can be used in a Sun Cluster configuration but will only
imported into a single node of a Sun Cluster configuration at a time.
