I have what looks like the same issue with my initial ZFS BE created to migrate from UFS. Do you see all or part of the BE still mounted? I see: zfs list | grep ROOT rpool/ROOT 11.8G 405G18K /rpool/ROOT rpool/ROOT/10u6ZFS62.2M 405G 4.61G /.alt.10u6ZFS rpool/ROOT/10u6ZFS/zoneRoot 17K 405G18K /.alt.10u6ZFS/zoneRoot rpool/ROOT/10u6ZFSa 11.7G 405G 9.53G / So it looks like the original BE is still partly mounted, so ludelete can't remount it. You could try unmounting the old filesystems before running ludelete. My system is now live, so I can't take the risk!

Then I . . . I made this same mistake. If you grep pool00 /etc/lu/ICF.1 you'll see filesystems beA expects to be mounted in beA; Some of those it may expect to be able to share between the current BE and beA. The way to fix things is to create a temporary pool pool00; This need not be on an actual disk, it could be hosted in a file or a slice, etc. Then create those datasets in the temporary pool, and try the ludelete beA again. Note that if the problem datasets are supposed to be shared between current BE and beA, you'll need them mounted on the original paths in the current BE, because ludelete will use loopback mounts to attach them into beA during the deletion process. I guess the moral of the story is that you should ludelete any old BE's before you alter the filesystems/datasets that it mounts.

Re: [zfs-discuss] unable to ludelete BE with ufs
Ya. That's what I ended up doing. Re-creating my UFS soft-partition boot meta devices and all the zfs filesystems (even though they were all empty). Then I was able to ludelete beA. There ought to be an option to '-f' or '--force' the ludelete so you can ignore the errors and just delete the darn thing. What I don't understand is... I had another old UFS BE, beB, that was identical to beA, except it's boot/root was another, identically sized (and identically metaclear'd) UFS soft-partition, and I was able to ludelete that one (see above). Very odd. Something was messed up. Thanks for the quick responses, eh?
