the problem with zfs is that there is no simple clustered
implementation, so your zfs filer (I run it at home, omnios, love it)
is your spof. If you want an enterprise zfs solution, you may as well
go with netapp which is much robuster in all senses. But this is not
the place for this discussion.

We have netapp filers, but not yet on nfsv4 (getting there, not yet).
I need acls on the /data directory for various reasons, and that is
simply not doable as of yet.

So we are for now stuck with local disks (vmdks) and ext4, the
standard file system on centos.

Thanks for your time.
