Folks,
How can I find out zpool id without using zpool import? zpool list
and zpool status does not have option as of Solaris 10U5.. Any back door
to grab this property will be helpful.
Thank you
Ajay
This is present as the ''guid'' property in Solaris Nevada. If you''re on a previous release, you can do one of the following: - ''zdb -l <device in pool>'' and look for the ''pool_guid'' property (if you''re using whole disks you''ll still need the s0 slice). - ''::walk spa | ::print spa_t spa_name spa_root_vdev->vdev_guid'' from ''mdb -k''.

You need to use zdb for already imported pools. -- Best regards, Robert Milkowski mailto:milek at task.gda.pl http://milek.blogspot.com
