Using SSD drives for ZFS L2ARC

edited Apr 26, 2016 5:07AM in Oracle Solaris ZFS File System (MOSC) 2 commentsAnswered

We have 7 ZFS pools defined on our systems and would like to improve IO performance.

We would like to add SSD drives to be used as ZFS L2ARC. 

Is it possible for a single SSD drive to be configured to function as cache for all of the existing pools or is it restricted to a particular pool?

If a single SSD drive can only be configured for a single pool, can it somehow be partitioned such that each partition could be used by a different pool?

What would be the commands and syntax to perform what we are looking to do?

Howdy, Stranger!
