Another related question - 

I have a second enclosure with blank disks which I would like to use to take a 
copy of the existing zpool as a precaution before attempting any fixes. The 
disks in this enclosure are larger than those that the one with a problem.

What would be the best way to do this?

If I were to clone the disks 1:1 would the difference in size cause any 
problems? I also had an idea that I might be able to DD the original disks into 
files on a ZFS on the second enclosure and mount the files but the few results 
I've turned up on the subject seem to say this is a bad idea.
