 zpool create testpool /dev/vx/dsk/dom/textvol


That's not a configuration that I'd recommend - you're layering
one volume management system on top of another. It seems that
it's getting rather messy inside the kernel.


Do you have the panic stack trace we can look at, and/or a
crash dump?

 Looks like you need to ask Symantec what's going on in their
 vxioioctl function.

This is most likely
