You may or may not need to add the log device back. zfs clear should bring the pool online. either way shouldn't affect the data. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris

Is there any chance that the second controller wrote something onto the disks when it saw the disks attached to it, thus corrupting the ZFS drive signatures or more? I've heard that some controllers require drives to be initialized by them and/or signatures written to drives by them. Maybe yo

Hey! It is there! :-) Cannot believe I did not try the import command again. :-) But I still have problems - I had added a slice of a SSD as log and another slice as cache to the pool. The SSD is there - c10d1 but ... Ideas? The log part showed under the pool when I initially tried the import, but

The J4400 (and J4200) are not Sun's own hardware products. They are manufactured by Quanta as the 1400 and 1200 SAS JBODs. Sun do their own firmware to make it a Sun product. You will be able to get both the drive brackets and SATA interposer cards through Quanta distribution. The other way

In the meantime, you can use autofs to do something close to this if you like (sort of like the pam_mkhomedir module) -- you can have it execute a script that returns the appropriate auto_user entry (given a username as input). I wrote one a long time ago that would do a zfs create if the dataset
