Won't disabling ZIL minimize the chance of a consistent zfs-
filesystem
if - for some reason - the server did an unplanned reboot?
ZIL in ZFS is only used to speed-up various workloads, it has
nothing to
do with file system consistency. ZFS is always consistent on disk no
matter if you use ZIL or not.
But it can cause NFS client corruption and you no longer gets
synchronous write semantics (see if your app depend on that):

I highly recommend *against* setting zil_disable.
