Now that I know *what*, could you perhaps explain to my *why*? I understood zpool import and export operations much as mount and unmount, like maybe some checks on the integrity of the pool and updates to some structure on the OS to maintain the imported/exported state of that pool. But now I suspect this state information is in fact maintained in the pool itself. Does this make sense?
In short, once a pool is exported, it's not available/visible for live usage, even after reboot.
In that case, may I suggest that you add a note to the manual (http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/zfs/boot/zfsboot-manual/) stating that the pool should not be exported prior to booting off it?
done
Thanks for your help!
