I destroyed my zpool but forgot to take the tar backup of /home folder. I was wondering if there's any way to restore the zpool? This was a single-HDD pool. zpool import -D shows the poolname but also shows that pool is unavailable and faulted. zdb commands give "no records available for poolname" The zpool command also shows the missing device by its ID number. I have left the HDD in the untouched state, and I am hopng that zpool may accept the HDD if I can figure out a way to pass the device number zpool is looking for to the GPT partition (or whatever ID mechanism zpool looks for) on the original HDD. Is there a way to do all that with ZFS? Thanks for any help. -- View this message in context: http://freebsd.1045724.n5.nabble.com/ZFS-recover-destroyed-zpool-what-are-the-available-options-tp5800299.html Sent from the freebsd-questions mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
