There is a currently open APR on ZFS secondary allocation. See OA44214.

I have always had success w/ zfsadm agggrow -size (final desired size). 
Check the fine manual for syntax. I am sure the above is incorrect.

Listcat the zFS.  It is the secondary allocation by default, I do believe. 
 You can override this by hand with the zfsadm grow command but if it is done 
as a result of the AGGRGROW parm on the mount it is the secondary allocation of 
the linear VSAM cluster, IIRC.

I've developed a zFS aggregate & am loading it up with a fairly large amount of 
data.
I keep on seeing console messages sequences like:

IOEZ00078E zFS aggregate <cluster name> exceeds 99% full (1282681/1285920)
(WARNING)
IOEZ00312I Dynamic growth of aggregate <cluster name> in progress, (by user 
xxxx).
IOEZ00309I Aggregate <cluster name> successfully dynamically grown (by user 
xxxx).
IOEZ00078E zFS aggregate <cluster name> exceeds 99% full (1285920/1289160)
(WARNING)

My question is with regard to the amount that the aggregate has grown by.
The difference between the '1285920' and '1289160' is 3240 - presumably that is 
# 8k-byte blocks, but available documentation appears to be woefully inadequate.
Who defines that '3420'? I certainly didn't specify it when creating the 
cluster, nor with any parm value when formatting it with IOEAGFMT. When I look 
at either IOEFSPRM or IOEPRMxx, all I see is a bunch of comment lines.
