Zpool /ZFS recovery

running VM server for Sparc on a Solaris 11 server. I have a Guest LDOm that had two seperate zpools running, one for the zones and one for the OS. The OS was corrupted and had to be replaced. The zones zfs file system is intact I think. I still have access to the disk and can still see it in format with a good lable, however Since I have had to rebuild the LDOM I no longer see the zones zpool. I cannot for the live of me figure out how to get the zpool back into the file system so I can mount it and use it again.

Please help

If you run zpool import, does it detect or imports the missing pool ?

Can you tell me if the corruption occurred because the ldom was started on another server while it was running ?

If so, it might be possible corruption occurred for zones zpool as well.

Is zpool status indicating anything but rpool ?
Can you confirm zpool zones pool disks are present and properly configured
Code:
ldm list-services
ldm list -e <ldom>

So a bit pointless because only one of the three is mirrored (and 6 way is a bit of overkill... (3 Replies)
