You need the dd sequence. And you need to do that on exported pool.
So, just to be clear, I need to boot off a USB key (which will then allow me to
write to ad8 and ad10, my two boot zpool devices), and then:
dd if=/boot/zfsboot of=/dev/ad8 bs=512 count=1
dd if=/boot/zfsboot of=/dev/ad10 bs=512 count=1
dd if=/boot/zfsboot of=/dev/ad8 bs=512 skip=1 seek=1024
dd if=/boot/zfsboot of=/dev/ad10 bs=512 skip=1 seek=1024
And that assumes that I copy the newly-compiled zfsboot to the USB key after
creating it, correct?
Yes.
PS: I've just recently changed my mind and moved from dedicated vdevs to
gpart. This gives possibility of:
1. Having raw swap partition suitable for swapping/dumping.
2. Updating bootcode online without loosing uptime.
Just in expense of some kilobytes of disk space.
