That's a very possible prognosis. Even when the pools are exported from one system, they are still marked as attached (thus the -f was necessary). Since I rebooted both systems at the same time I guess it's possible that they both made claim to the pool and corrupted it. I'm glad this will be fixed in the future. -Tim _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
