The impact is even greater than that. Consider a system with several zones.
Each zone connects to storage of different types with different levels of
reliability. Perhaps you have a production zone and a development zone and a
sandbox zone with dopey storage.
If you lose access to the dopey storage, not only do you drop your sandbox
zone, you panic the entire server--with whatever implications that may carry
for the other pools or services on the server.
