#1. I have installed Solaris and Ubuntu on the same machine. I am dual booting to one of the OSes. Then I access the data disk which is formatted using ZFS. On the data disk there are virtual machines used by VirtualBox.

#2. My home directories are mounted as normal, i.e. /export/home in Solaris and /home in Linux.

#3. No, I am not aware of that command.

My problem is that when I boot into Linux and then reboot into Solaris, then the zfs data disk is imported in Linux. Solaris gets confused because Solaris tries to mount the zfs data disk, which is not imported into Solaris at this point. So I would like to pause Solaris and import the zfs disk so it is possible to mount /export/home, and then continue with bootup. Do you think #3 will help me?
