Hi,

In migrating from **VM to ZFS am I going to have an issue with Major/Minor 
numbers with NFS mounts? Take the following scenario.

1. NFS clients are connected to an active NFS server that has SAN shared 
storage between the active and standby nodes in a cluster.
2. The NFS clients are using the major/minor numbers on the active node in the 
cluster to communicate to the NFS active server.
3. The active node fails over to the secondary node in the cluster.
4. The NFS clients can no longer access the same major minor number for NFS 
shares. 

Does anyone know how ZFS fixes this problem. I read something on NFSv4 in Linux 
that has the "fsid" option of mount that allows you to set the device name 
instead of the major/minor number. Does Solaris 10 have anything like this?

Thanks,

ljs
