Hello, 

I have a very strange isue with a root zpool. I have a test machine which is 
running OpenSolaris 2009.06 and has a mirrored root pool and, recently, one of 
the drives failed. I replaced the drive and resilvered the mirror successfully. 

Shortly afterwards, the machine crashed and hung at the GRUB menu; selecting 
any BE to boot from caused the menu to vanish and the OpenSolaris splash screen 
to stay in place. I have tried booting from a LiveCD with the idea of importing 
and reparing the zpool manually but any command which seems to access the zpool 
(such as zbd or zpool) now hangs with no access going on on the disks in the 
zpool. 

Does anyone have any ideas? I'm not sure what to try next. IIRC grub lives 
outside the pool, so after resilvering, you'll need to install grub again on 
the failed disk. Do NOT try to import the rpool with a different name. It'll 
break a lot of stuff, rpools are quite touchy, just mount it somewhere else. If 
you can't mount it, I don't know, perhaps someone else knows.... 

Vennlige hilsener / Best regards 

roy
