Hiya,
I'm about 2 months into my ZFS build (S11E) now and performance is so much better than WHS!
However, one of the nice things about WHS was the client console - giving you alerts when things go wrong.
I'm not overly bothered about have a local console with ZFS, but being able to run monitoring tools from the console would be ok, but i'm not sure what tools exist/can be added, i.e;
smart status monitoring of disks (is this CHKSUM on zpool status )
cpu/ram usage
iops (zpool iostat?)
fan speeds (longshot!)
disk usage (zfs list? - anything more detailed)
re point 1, I run weekly cron scrubs but I haven't figured out how to get the result of the scrub sent to me by email.
And any other monitoring/management things that typically go on (brain freeze at the moment!)
Cheers
