Hi Beau,
In this case, you would use /dev/dsk instead of /dev/rdsk,
but ZFS does not require them. Try this instead:
# zpool attach -f rpool c8t0d0s0 c8t1d0s0
Thanks,
Cindy

r...@opensolaris:~# prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/c8t0d0s2 | fmthard -s -
/dev/rdsk/c8t1d0s2
fmthard: New volume table of contents now in place.
now this:
r...@opensolaris:~# zpool attach -f rpool /dev/rdsk/c8t0d0s0
/dev/rdsk/c8t1d0s0
cannot use '/dev/rdsk/c8t1d0s0': must be a block device or regular file
Im stuck now...

Since the rpool can not use EFI labels you need to format the
mirror disk so it is the same as your rpool disk.
Example and your disk target will/may differ.
prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/c7t0d0s2 | fmthard -s - /dev/rdsk/c7t1d0s2
(s2 is the whole disk)
Then just attach the disk to be mirrored
/usr/sbin/zpool attach -f rpool /dev/rdsk/c7t0d0s0 /dev/rdsk/c7t1d0s0
If you want to be able to boot from the mirror as a CYA then run
install grub
installgrub -m /boot/grub/stage1 /boot/grub/stage2 /dev/rdsk/c7t1d0s0
The following will show the progress of the resilvering
zpool status
