I have a Sun machine running Solaris 10, and a Vbox instance running Solaris 11 11/11. The vbox machine has a virtual disk pointing to /dev/disk1 (rawdisk), seen in sol11 as c0t2. If I create a zpool on the Sun s10 machine, on a USB stick, I can take that USB stick and access it through the vbox

Phew… seems that the S11 update process replaced my modified qlc.conf with a standard one. In SE11 I had to lower the queue depth by setting max_execution_throttle to something lower than 16. Mostly since I am exposing 16 LUNs from each storage and this the qlc.driver flooded the storage contro
