Anyone know the CAM service incantation to ignore cache sync commands on
the 6140?

Found this online for the 2540 but not the 6140:

The new firmware on the 2540 was like some whole new product so I doubt
that this old posting is applicable any more.

So with every CAM update you need to find a new recipe? Seems easier to
just set the following in /etc/system:
 set zfs:zfs_nocacheflush = 1

As Bob mentioned, this isn't always safe. As this is a global setting in the ZFS driver, pools on disks that /should/ have caches explicitly flushed will not have that. An example would be a ZFS root on local disks.
