If the pool "Enable Dedupe Metadata" is disabled then there are no tables initialized for that pool. When you try to add a disk to this pool without a disk configured in the Default pool the disk addition will fail. This is because there is no way to store the deduplication entries for the vdisks in the pool.
Alternatively when you add a disk to a pool with "Enable Dedupe Metadata" the initial used space of the disk is much higher than when adding the first disk to a pool with "Enable Dedupe Metadata" unchecked.
