Shared pool of storage faster, and with a higher level of resiliency, Xsan SAN clients automatically receive updates to the fsnameservers list from the SAN configuration servers whenever this list changes. The list should contain the same addresses in the same order as the metadata controller (MDC) /Library/Preferences/Xsan/fsnameservers file. Distributed LAN Client enables applications on the LAN to access a An array of storage area network (SAN) File System Name Server coordinators. Since XSAN is based on Quantum's StorNext I think these features may show up.
APPLE XSAN SOFTWARE UPDATE
ZFS support would be nice in a future update as well. Fibre is just too expensive (although a good performer) and many companies want to rip it out and wait for 10G ethernet. I can't see why XSAN would need to support Spotlight itself. Spotlight searching should come from OS X Server as it has a Spotlight Server in the forthcoming Leopard version.
