Howdy Eduardo, Recently I had a similar issue where the pool wouldn't import and attempting to import it would essentially lock the server up. Finally I used pfexec zpool import -F pool1 and simply let it do it's thing. After almost 60 hours the imported finished and all has been well since (except my backup procedures have improved!).
Good luck!
