You don't need anything from your current Solaris install to access your 
ZFS storage pool. 'zpool import' will locate the pool on a fresh install.

If possible, you should perform a 'zpool export' on the current system 
before reinstalling Solaris, because ZFS will refuse to import a pool 
that wasn't exported if it is marked as being in use by a different system 
(in this case the previous install).

If exporting is not possible, 'zpool import -f' will ignore that warning 
and allow importing anyway.
