Greetings All,
I can't believe it didn't figure this out sooner. First of all, a big thank you to everyone who gave me advice and suggestions, especially Richard. The problem was with the -d switch. When importing a pool if you specify -d and a path it ONLY looks there. So if I run: # zpool import -d /var/zfs-log/ tank It won't look for devices in /dev/dsk Consequently running without -d /var/zfs-log/ it won't find the log device. Here is the command that worked: # zpool import -d /var/zfs-log -d /dev/dsk tank And to make sure that this doesn't happen again (I have learned my lesson this time) I have ordered two small SSD drives to put in a mirrored config for the log device. Thanks again to everyone and now I will get some worry-free sleep :) Andrew
