Hi Mark.

>>What does "gpart show" return?
=>       34  625142381  ada0  GPT  (298G)
34   62914560     1  freebsd-zfs  (30G)
62914594  562227821     2  freebsd-zfs  (268G)

>>Are all the pool members there and working?
Yes - ada0p2 is the ONLY pool member.

>>My guess is that one member is missing or a mbr is bad.
After 'zpool destroy', I also deleted the partition before realising my
mistake, I tried to recover the partition table with testdisk, but this was
not successful. Next I created a new GPT table and the 2 partitions at the
original size as I recalled them - so ada0p1 and ada0p2 have been
re-created.

I just realized a problem: gpart show -r =>
62914594  562227821     2  516e7cba-6ecf-11d6-8ff8-00022d09712b  (268G)
The guid (?) that ZFS is looking for is most likely wrong. I need to find
the ID that ZFS is looking for and change the ID of ada0p2 to that number -
am I correct?

Thanks.
