In the beginning, I created a mirror named DumpFiles on FreeBSD. Later, I decided to move those drives to a new Solaris 11 server-- but rather than import the old pool I''d create a new pool. And I liked the DumpFiles name, so I stuck with it. Oops. Now whenever I run zpool import, it shows a faulted zpool that I can''t import and can''t delete: root at backbone:/home/dpooser# zpool import pool: DumpFiles id: 16375225052759912554 state: FAULTED status: The pool was last accessed by another system. action: The pool cannot be imported due to damaged devices or data. The pool may be active on another system, but can be imported using the ''-f'' flag. see: http://www.sun.com/msg/ZFS-8000-EY config: DumpFiles FAULTED corrupted data mirror-0 ONLINE c8t5000C5001B03A749d0p0 ONLINE c9t5000C5001B062211d0p0 ONLINE I deleted the new DumpFiles pool; no change. The -f flag doesn''t help with the import, and I''ve deleted the zpool.cache and rebooted without any luck. Any suggestions appreciated-- there is no data on those drives that I''m worried about, but I''d like to get rid of that error. -- Dave Pooser Manager of Information Services Alford Media http://www.alfordmedia.com
