Folks,

I am learning more about zfs storage. It appears, zfs pool can be created on a 
raw disk. There is no need to create any partitions, etc. on the disk. Does 
this mean there is no need to run "format" on a raw disk?

I have added a new disk to my system. It shows up as /dev/rdsk/c8t1d0s0. Do I 
need to format it before I convert it to zfs storage? Or, can I simply use it 
as:

# zfs create MyData /dev/rdsk/c8t1d0s0

Thank you in advance for your help.

Regards,
Peter
