Just wanted to update everyone on this... I installed 2009.06 (snv_111b), and gave the import of the pool one last try. After approximately 20 minutes of grinding, the pool imported properly! No clue why, but all seems to be working now. Thanks for the insight from the list, I really appreciate it. -Carl _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
