Hi John,

In general, ZFS will warn you when you attempt to add a device that
is already part of an existing pool. One exception is when the system
is being re-installed.

I'd like to see the set of steps that led to the notification failure.

Thanks,

Cindy

I was able to solve it, but it actually worried me more than anything.

Basically, I had created the second pool using the mirror as a primary device. 
So three disks but two full disk root mirrors.

Shouldn't zpool have detected an active pool and prevented this? The other LDOM 
was claiming a corrupted device, which I was able to replace and clear easily. 
But the one pool I originally posted about looks to be permanently gone, since 
it believes there is another device, but doesn't know where the device is or 
what it was ever called. If I could import it and re-do the mirror somehow, or 
something similar, it'd be great. Is there anyway to force it to realize it's 
wrong?

Obviously, I should've kept better track of the WWN's - But I've made the 
mistake before and zpool always prevented it.
