You can use ZFS+Comstar to create a SAN controller.

But you were able to do this before SmartOS... I'm curious about this too, and how Joyent have architected their cloud arrangement. I feel like perhaps hypervisors have local ZFS storage, as opposed to large SAN-backed virtual machines, but I can't really find much useful information on how Joyent/SmartOS implement/architect storage...
