This would be a bug.  "zpool destroy" should only destroy pools.
Volumes are datasets and are destroyed by "zfs destroy."  Using
"zpool destroy -f" will attempt to force unmounts of any mounted
datasets, but volumes are not mounted, per se. Upon reboot, nothing
will be mounted until after the pool is imported.


I don't want to destroy the pool, I just wanted to destroy the one
volume. -- Which is why I now want to import the pool itself. Does
that make sense?

If the pool was destroyed, then you can try to import using -D.

Are you sure you didn't "zfs destroy" instead? Once the pool is imported,
"zpool history" will show all of the commands issued against the pool.
