I'm relatively new to ZFS and have been playing around with different =20 file-backed set ups to determine how I will eventually configure my =20 pools. I've recently come across a problem with exporting a pool, but =20 I'm not sure if it's a bug or just my poor understanding of ZFS. I =20 create a simple pool using 2 128MB files. After exporting the pool, I =20 am unable to import it and the pool is not found by the zpool command. =20 Any advise would be appreciated. I'm currently running 8.1 STABLE. ratchet# dd if=3D/dev/zero of=3D/disk1.dd bs=3D1m count=3D128 128+0 records in 128+0 records out 134217728 bytes transferred in 2.852547 secs (47051891 bytes/sec) ratchet# dd if=3D/dev/zero of=3Ddisk2.dd bs=3D1m count=3D128 128+0 records in 128+0 records out 134217728 bytes transferred in 2.740976 secs (48967128 bytes/sec) ratchet# zpool create pool /usr/tmp/disk1.dd /usr/tmp/disk2.dd ratchet# zpool list NAME SIZE USED AVAIL CAP HEALTH ALTROOT pool 246M 75K 246M 0% ONLINE - ratchet# zpool status pool: pool state: ONLINE scrub: none requested config: =09NAME STATE READ WRITE CKSUM =09pool ONLINE 0 0 0 =09 /usr/tmp/disk1.dd ONLINE 0 0 0 =09 /usr/tmp/disk2.dd ONLINE 0 0 0 errors: No known data errors ratchet# zpool export pool ratchet# zpool import -d .
