you can do something like:
zpool create test raidz2 d1 d2 d3 d4 d5 raidz2 d6 d7 d8 d9 d10 \
raidz2 d11 d12 d13 d14 d15
zfs create test/fs1
zfs create test/fs2
zfs create test/fs3
That way you have created a pool which is made of 3 raid-z2 groups and
you have then created additional 3 file systems withint the pools,
each of them can use all space in a pool by default.
Later on you can do:
zpool add test raidz2 d16 d17 d18 d19 d20
