Our server locked up hard yesterday and we had to hard power it off and back on. The server locked up again on reading ZFS config (I left it trying to read the zfs config for 24 hours). I went through and removed the drives for the data pool we created and powered on the server and it booted successfully. I removed the pool from the system and reattached the drives and tried to re-import the pool. It has now been trying to import for about 6 hours. Does anyone know how to recover this pool? Running version 134. Thanks Travis -- This message posted from opensolaris.org

Running version 134.Have you enabled compression or deduplication ? Check the disks with `iostat -XCn 1` (look for high asvc_t times) and `iostat -En` (hard and soft errors). -- Giovanni Tirloni gtirloni at sysdroid.com
I have been working on the same problem now for almost 48 straight hours. I have managed to recover some of my data using zpool import -f pool The command never completes, but you can do a zpool list and zpool status and you will see the pool. Then you do zfs list and the file systems should be present. In my case I corrupted a "data" file system, but the user systems were some what still intact. So I did zfs send pool/snapshot | zfs receive newpool/snapshot_backup This allowed me to recover some of my data. But in large the data is gone. I am going to be migrating to 2009.06.
