To add my 0.2 cents...

I think starting/stopping scrub belongs to cron, smf, etc. and not to zfs itself.

However what would be nice to have is an ability to freeze/resume a scrub and also limit its rate of scrubbing. One of the reason is that when working in SAN environments one have to take into account more that just a server where a scrub will be running as while it might not impact the server it might cause an issue for others, etc.

There's an RFE for this (pause/resume a scrub), or rather there was - unfortunately, it's got subsumed into another RFE/BUG and the pause/resume requirement got lost. I'll see about reinstating it.
