We're looking at replacing a current Linux server with a T1000 + a fiber channel enclosure
to take advantage of ZFS. Unfortunately, the T1000 only has a single drive bay (!) which
makes it impossible to follow our normal practice of mirroring the root file system;
naturally the idea of using that big ZFS pool is appealing.
Note: the original T1000 had the single disk limit. This was unfortunate, and a
sales inhibitor. Today, you have the option of single (SATA) or dual (SAS) boot
disks, with hardware RAID. See:

Is anyone actually booting ZFS in production and, if so, would you recommend
this approach?
At this time, I would not recommend it for SPARC systems.
