Depends on what benefit you are looking for. 

If you are looking ways to improve redundancy you can still benefit from ZFS


 

a)      ZFS snap shots will give you the ability to withstand soft/user
errors.

b)      ZFS checksum...

c)       ZFS can mirror (synch or async) a 6140'lun to an other storage for
increased redundancy

d)      You can put an other level of raid over 6140's internal raid to
increase redundancy

e)      Use ZFS send recieve to backup data some other place.

Subject: [zfs-discuss] zfs on top of 6140 FC array

 

When set up with  multi-pathing to dual redundant controllers, is layering
zfs on top of the 6140 of any benefit? AFAIK this array does have internal
redundant paths up to the disk connection.
