I am very confused how to resolve the following issue. I have a zfs pool that can be imported to two systems. On one system the pool is a "secondary" pool, i.e. I import it into altroot, do some modifications to filesystems, etc. On the other system it is a "primary" pool - the system boots from it, there are no UFS or other filesystems besides ZFS on this pool. So the problem is the following - when I disconnect the disk from the first system I have to do zpool export on it, but in this case the second system can not boot from it (no pools found). So currently I have to boot the second system from live cd first, perform zpool import and the reboot "into the pool". I believe that "live cd" step can be avoided somehow, but don't know how. -- Andriy Gapon
