yes we can use the dir pool for the duplicate path verification but for
verifying the unsupported error we would require a pool other than dir
pool.
Ah, right - good point. I'm wondering if the unsupported error should be
a different test. I'll need to give this some thought.. ordinarily, I
would suggest having the test skip if there isn't a nfsserver.. but in
this case, I would like to see the test report pass/failure status on
the other conditions of the test.
