Had the same issue. I was unable to import my zpools after a clean
install (I did a zpool export before the reinstall).
I'm running the following version of Ubuntu:
$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS
Release:16.04
Codename: xenial
I'm running the following kernel version:
$ uname -a
Linux UniServer 4.4.0-62-generic #83-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jan 18 14:09:55 UTC 2017
i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux
I've edited the file mentioned in post #6, rebooted, ran the commands
and tried to check the status of the zpools. They were already imported!
Issue solved.
Thank you Michael T. for your post!

Title:
Trying to reinstall ZFS on Xenial. Cannot mount existing zpool with
identifier from /mnt/disk/by-id/
Status in zfs-linux package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Description: Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS
Release: 16.04
zfs-dkms 0.6.5.6-0ubuntu15
I cant mount/install my zpool. so i tried reinstalling zfslinux-utils,
which gives me three error messages like this: "zfs-mount.service is a
disabled" or a static unit, not starting it."...
If something doesn't work I try googling error messages. most answers
not totally like my problem but related to dkms, so I tried loading
zfs-dkms and reinstalling zfslinux-utils.
I created the zpool with id from /mnt/disk/by-id/ - which is zfs good-
practice. This may be causing problems with the mount. I dont know...
Cheers.
