I also wanted to test a recovery of my pool, so my took two disk raidz pool
onto a friends freebsd box. It seems both systems use zfs version 6, but the
import failed. I noticed on the boot logs:

Is it possible/recommended to have something like a pool of two raidz pools.
This will hopefully maximize my storage space compared to mirrors, and still

You can't create a RAID-Z out of two disks. You either
