I even have this problem on my (productive) backup server. I lost my system-hdd and my separate ZIL-device while the system crashes and now I'm in trouble. The old system was running under the least version of osol/dev with zfs v22. 10 days ago after the servers crashs I was very optimistc of solving the problems the same day. It's a long time ago. After seting up a new systen (osol 2009.06 and updating to the lastest version of osol/dev with deduplication) I tried to import my backup zpool, but I can't. # zpool import pool: tank1 id: 5048704328421749681 state: UNAVAIL status: The pool was last accessed by another system. action: The pool cannot be imported due to damaged devices or data. see: http://www.sun.com/msg/ZFS-8000-EY config:
tank1 UNAVAIL missing device raidz2-0 ONLINE c7t5d0 ONLINE c7t0d0 ONLINE c7t6d0 ONLINE c7t3d0 ONLINE c7t1d0 ONLINE c7t4d0 ONLINE c7t2d0 ONLINE # zpool import -f tank1 cannot import 'tank1': one or more devices is currently unavailable Destroy and re-create the pool from a backup source Any other option (-F, -X, -V, -D) and any combination of them doesn't helps. I can not add / attach / detach / remove a vdev and the ZIL-device either. In the last ten days I read a lot of threads, guides to solve problems with ZFS and so on, but not found a solution for my problem. I created a fake-zpool with separate ZIL-device to combine the ZIL-file with my old zpool for importing them, but it doesn't work in course of the different GUID and checksum (the name I was modifiing by an binary editor).
