I'm not sure how it works with naked SmartOS, but when using Triton the
machines are created with a second drive.  The size of the second drive is
specified in the package used for the VM, the first drive size is set by
the image.

It's easy enough to add a second drive to a SmartOS KVM once it is built or
add one to the provisioning JSON.

Cheers,
Ian
