same error when i tried a different disk, c2t0d1. i ended up physically removing c2t0d0 from the system, creating the new pool, and then adding c2t0d0 back ... booted without errors. i wasn't about to try -f for fear of what might happen to c2t0d0. later on when i am done with the new pool (it's temporary space) i will destroy it and try to recreate it and see if i get the same error. i am still looking for the answer to this if anyone has any ideas or wants me to collect any debug data. -frank _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
