Couple of questions,
What version of Solaris are you using? (cat /etc/release)
If you're exposing each disk individually through a LUN/2540 Volume, you
don't really gain anything by having a spare on the 2540 (which I assume
you're doing by only exposing 11 LUNs instead of 12).  Your best bet is to
set no spares on the 2540 and then set one of the LUNs as a spare via ZFS.
How will you be using the storage?  This will help determine how your zpool
should be structured.
