Now I'm simply confused.

Do you mean one cachefile shared between the two nodes for this zpool? How, may 
I ask, would this work?

The rpool should be in /etc/zfs/zpool.cache.

The shared pool should be in /etc/cluster/zpool.cache (or wherever you prefer 
to put it) so it won't come up on system start.

What I don't understand is how the second node is either a) supposed to share 
the first nodes cachefile or b) create it's own without importing the pool.

You say this is the job of the cluster software- does ha-cluster already handle 
this with their ZFS modules?

I've asked this question 5 different ways and I either still haven't gotten an 
answer- or still don't understand the problem.

Is there a way for a passive node to generate it's _own_ zpool.cache without 
importing the file system. If so- how. If not- why is this unimportant?
