When you create a ZFS pool the value of the hostid is stored inside it. When the system is going to import a pool it checks if the hostid stored inside the pool matches the current host hostid. If it don't matches it refuses to import the pool.
Not suprising: sunos is one of those legacy systems where old scripts tend to assume hostid is a system serial number. :)
We are working on packaging ZoL (ZFS on Linux native with DKMS) [1] for Debian and we are checking how we can solve this issue.
I'd suggest an application-specific UUID incorporating the hostname. Mike Stone
