I think I might have a better understanding of the situation. 'zpool status' and 'zdb -C' commands both show bsdr properties as: pool_guid: 17852168552651762162 children[0]: \ type: 'disk' \ guid: 12606749387939346898
Whereas 'zpool import -D' and 'zdb -l' commands give the bsdr properties as: pool_guid: 12018916494219117471 vdev_tree: \ type: 'disk \ top_guid: 17860002997423999070 Since the LABEL info on the HDD is the more relevant data, I should be using the output of zdb -l, and disregard the pool that shows itself as "already imported - albeit faulted". I therefore plan to import the bsdr pool with a newname and should run the import command as: zpool import -D -f -R /bsdr -N -F -n -X 12018916494219117471 newname Any objections? We must also keep in mind that '-D' flag is showing TWO deleted bsdr pools, so I must use the unique ID. Please let me know if I should go ahead and run above command. Thanks and Regards. -- View this message in context: http://freebsd.1045724.n5.nabble.com/ZFS-recover-destroyed-zpool-what-are-the-available-options-tp5800299p5801834.html Sent from the freebsd-questions mailing list archive at Nabble.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"
