Share iSCSI Volumes With Linux Clients via ZFS

“Before we get started, a quick clarification is in order. The
codename for the x4500 is “Thumper.” The Thumper has 48 SATA disks

system using two 1TB disks mirrored. The x4540 is called “Thor,”
and it ships with a compact flash drive for the OS.

“This couldn’t be simpler. In the basic mode, without

we don’t actually want to create a ZFS file system.”
