Hello!

I am exerimenting with ZFS on a fibre channel connected storage system and have 
run a minor annoyance.  Ideally I would like to have all my storage exported as 
~1.5 TB LUNS from the disk system (2x750 GiB).

Solaris detects these LUNS but it cannot use them.  I get "cannot open 
/dev/rdsk/c4$WWNdNp0" when trying to run fdisk.  A Linux system has no problems 
using the same LUN.

If I reduce the size to half it does work, but I cannot shed the suspicion that 
ZFS way of evently distributing I/O over available LUNs will cause a 
performance hit as ZFS effectively will load balance over two regions on the 
same disk platter.

Is there a 1 TB LUN limit in opensolaris? The only other component involved is 
the Qlogox 23xxx card that I use and the assiociated qlc driver.

Regards,

/Erik
