Hi All,

I have FC LUNs from NetApp FAS 3240 mapped to two SPARC T4-2 clustered
nodes running Veritas Cluster Server software. For now, the
configuration on NetApp is as follows:

/vol/EBUSApp/EBUSApp                                              100G
     online   MBSUN04 : 0 MBSUN05 : 0
/vol/EBUSBinry/EBUSBinry                                          200G
     online   MBSUN04 : 1 MBSUN05 : 1
/vol/EBUSCtrlog/EBUSCtrlog                                       5G
      online   MBSUN04 : 2 MBSUN05 : 2
/vol/EBUSDB/EBUSDB
300.0G online   MBSUN04 : 3 MBSUN05 : 3
/vol/EBUSIO_FENC1/EBUSIO_FENC1                      5G          online
  MBSUN04 : 4 MBSUN05 : 4
/vol/EBUSIO_FENC2/EBUSIO_FENC2                      5G          online
  MBSUN04 : 5 MBSUN05 : 5
/vol/EBUSIO_FENC3/EBUSIO_FENC3                      5G          online
  MBSUN04 : 6 MBSUN05 : 6
/vol/EBUSRDlog/EBUSRDlog                                       5G
    online   MBSUN04 : 7 MBSUN05 : 7

I will be mapping the above volumes on hosts and creating zpool and
zfs file system. More volumes will be created in the future.

Is it a good idea to create a single ZFS zpool and add all the devices
or create multiple ZFS zpools and map each device to the individual
zpool?
