We have non-redundant ZFS pools on an HDS 9520V array, and also a Sun 6120 array, some of them running for two years now (S10U3, S10U4, S10U5, both SPARC and x86), up to 4TB in size. We have experienced SAN zoning mistakes, complete power loss to arrays, servers, and/or SAN switches, etc., with no pool corruption or data loss. We have not even seen one block checksum error detected by ZFS on these arrays (we have seen one such error on our X4500 in the past 6 months). Note that the only available pool failure mode in the presence of a SAN I/O error for these OS's has been to panic/reboot, but so far when the systems have come back, data has been fine. We also do tape backups of these pools, of course.
