The reason is that a ZFS volume is a zfs "block device emulation" it does not contain a filesystem and is therefore not exportable as ZFS via NFS. zvols can be exported over iSCSI or in the case of OpenSolaris as FC targets, however to export a zvol over NFS a filesystem (UFS for example) must be created on the volume, it must be mounted using the legacy mount option and it must also be exported using the legacy NFS share/dfstab method.

Hey all,
I have a machine with 16 drive slots. Two of the drives have a ZFS mirror of the operating system, the other 14 contain the storage raidz.
