The way ZFS works is to have storage pools, the script checks the status
of the storage pools which is where the ONLINE, FAULTED, DEGRADED stuff
comes in to it.

The capacity is just for my own information as we currently run only one
zfs filesystem per storage pool, as you state this isn't really needed
as it does duplicate other things, however it gives you the ability to
see how much storage is in a pool, you can have multiple ZFS file
systems inside each pool so it does have it's uses.

I concur, unless there's something specific that ZFS provides that is 
critical to monitor.  This way the back end client code will be similar 
to (or the same as) that for Linux.

I don't know about ZFS, but are these the same kind of values "du"
reports ? If so, maybe it's a duplicate, or maybe you should format
the
output the way "disk" does.

Just a question/suggestion.
