Yes aggregates can of cause be shared between multiple SVMs…. (erhm… I think a little polite rtfm is in order here?) 😉

And before you ask, you cannot use the two aggr0 root aggregates for any data volumes…

I think I may just be looking at a limit of the system. If an aggregate is already assigned to one SVM, can it also be assigned to another? That is, can two different SVMs access the same aggregate?

Forget any mention of disk ownership :)

Can an aggregate be used by more than one SVM? If so, how? When I try to
add the aggregate to the other SVM, the command returns without error
but vserver show still shows the SVMS and their assigned aggregates
unchanged.
