You shouldn't put ESX volumes in rpool.  Create a separate pool - if necessary 
first partition your disk - and put the volumes into the second pool.

If you partition your disk, you should be aware that zfs only enables the disk 
hardware write-back cache for systems where zfs has control of the whole disk.  
So you might have to script something with "format" to enable the disk cache on 
those devices.
