Yes, using multiple extents would be one option, or using NFS instead of iSCSI.
Yes, but No.
One of the killing point for NetApp : Veeam backup & restore with SnapMirror/Vault and Exchange.
If you want to backup & restore Exchange mailboxes using SnapVault / SnapMirror you need to have a single VMFS datastore
Exchange is NOT supported on NFS datastore
If your mailboxes LUNs / VMDK are bigger than 16TB, you need to add extend to your existing datastore
Veeam is not able to restore when using VMFS extents.
So 16TB LUN limitation for Exchange when using Veeam is BIG issue and we have to migrate LUNs to another storage vendor.
How to lose a customer for such a ridiculous limitation...
