Try using mdconfig to attach these files as disk devices. "mdconfig -a -t vnode -f /tmp/zp/d1" and "-f /tmp/zp/d2" (you'll get two md# devices), then see if the zpool import command is any happier. It may be looking for disk devices and not files. -- Dan Nelson dnel...@allantgroup.com _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
