When you say "offline", did you:
- remove the drive physically?
- or did you zfs detach it?
- or both?
In order to remove half of the mirror I suggest that you:
split the mirror (if your ZFS is recent enough; seems to be
supported since 131)
[ make sure you remove /etc/zfs/zpool.cache from the
split half of the mirror. ]
or
detach
only then remove the disk.
Depending on the hardware it may try to find the missing disk and this
may take some time.
You can boot with the debugger and/or -v to find out was is going on.
