Search for ZFS SAN I think we've had a bunch of threads on this.

I run 2-node clusters with T-2000 units to pairs of either 3510FC (older) or 
2540 (newer) over dual SAN switches.  Multipath has worked fine, had an entire 
array go offline during attempt to replace a bad controller.  Since ZFS pool 
was mirrored onto another array, there was no disruption of service.  We use a 
hybrid setup where I build 5-disk RAID-5 LUNs on each array, then that is 
mirrored in ZFS with a LUN from a different array.  Best of both worlds IMO.   
Each cluster supports about 10K users for Cyrus mail-store since 10u4 fsync 
performance patch no performance issues.  I wish zpool scrub ran a bit quicker, 
but I think 10u6 will address that.

I'm not sure I see the point of EMC but like me you probably already have some 
equipment and just want to use it or add to it.
