The update targets only the Filesystem portion of Xsan and includes the following fixes according to the release notes:

"The Xsan 2.2.2 Filesystem Update is recommended for all Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard-based Xsan 2.2 systems. This update improves general file system reliability and 

- improves file system reliability when the filesystem is highly fragmented 
- improves file system reliability when unmounting a volume 
- improves file system reliability when running snfsdefrag 
- improves file system reliability when native extended attributes are enabled 
- improves Finder reliability when browsing a volume that is highly fragmented 
- allows Xsan Admin to create new volumes when more than 100 fsm processes are running."

The update weighs in at 39.45 MB and requires Xsan 2.2 and Mac OS X 10.6 client or server. Apple also released an updated version of Xsan Uninstaller to support the Xsan 2.2.2 filesystem update.
