hi
are the disk/sas controller the same on both server?

Seemingly no. I don't see the output of "format" on Server2,
but for Server1 I see that the 3TB disks are used as IDE
devices (probably with motherboard SATA-IDE emulation?)
while on Server2 addressing goes like SAS with WWN names.

Correct, the servers are all different.
Server1 is a HP xw8400, and the disks are connected to the first four SATA ports (the xw8400 has both SAS and SATA ports, of which I use the SAS ports for the system disks). On Server2, the disk controller used for the data disks is a LSI SAS 9211-8i, updated with the latest IT-mode firmware (also tested with the original IR-mode firmware)

The output of the 'format' command on Server2 is:

Note that this is what it looks like now, not at the time I sent the question. The difference is that I have set up three other disks (items 4-6) on the new server, and are currently transferring the contents from Server1 to this one using zfs send/receive.

I will probably be able to reconnect the correct disks to the Server2 tomorrow when the data has been transferred to the new disks (problem 'solved' at that moment), if there is anything else that I can do to try to solve it the 'right' way.

It may be possible that on one controller disks are used
"natively" while on another they are attached as a JBOD
or a set of RAID0 disks (so the controller's logic or its
expected layout intervenes), as recently discussed on-list?

On the HP, on a reboot, I was reminded that the 3TB disks were displayed as 800GB-something by the BIOS (although correctly identified by OpenIndiana and ZFS). This could be a part of the problem with the ability to export/import the pool.

Hello,

I'm currently replacing a temporary storage server (server1) with the one that should be the final one (server2). To keep the data storage from the old one I'm attempting to import it on the new server. Both servers are running OpenIndiana server build 151a.

Server 1 (old)
The zpool consists of three disks in a raidz1 configuration:
# zpool status
            c4d0    ONLINE       0     0     0
            c4d1    ONLINE       0     0     0
            c5d0    ONLINE       0     0     0

errors: No known data errors

Output of format command gives:
# format

Server 2 (new)
I have attached the disks on the new server in the same order (which shouldn't matter as ZFS should locate the disks anyway)
zpool import gives:
