Thanks for the feedback Richard. Does that mean that the L2ARC can be part of ANY pool and that there is only ONE L2ARC for all pools active on the machine ?
Thesis: - There is one L2ARC on the machine for all pools - all Pools active share the same L2ARC - the L2ARC can be part of any pool, also the root (syspool) pool If this true, the solution would be like this: a) Add L2ARC to the syspool or b) Add another two (standby) L2ARC devices in the head that are used in case of a failover. (Thus a configuration that accepts degrated performance after a failover has to life with this "corrup data" effect).
