Please note, oracle grub2 and oracle zfs are very different in this case; also public grub2 is very different. The best option would be to chainload, but I have not tested the grub2 EFI chainload for a very long time.
You would need to create ESP:Efi/illumos/boot/loader64.efi and then grub config to chainload that file. Rgds, Toomas > On 5.
