I always cringe when I see a timid newcomer get spanked and I appreciate the tact and diplomacy of your gentle RTFM :)
In this case I'd read the docs on managing aggrs and was confused by the system not behaving like I'd expect. Admittedly whatever was going wrong was likely carbon-based.
All is well...

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.
