Re: [zfs-discuss] rpool recover not using zfs send/receive
I discovered my problem. I didn't notice that the base rpool was broken out and mounted as /rpool . After restoring /rpool the machine booted without error.

[zfs-discuss] rpool recover not using zfs send/receive
Is it possible to recover the rpool with only a tar/star archive of the root filesystem? I have used the zfs send/receive methods and that work without a problem. What I am trying to do is recreate the rpool and underlying zfs filesystems (rpool/ROOT, rpool/s10_uXX, rpool/dump, rpool/swap, rpool/export, and rpool/export/home). I then mount the pool at a alternate root and restore the tar archive. Lastly, I set the zpool bootf option to the correct zfs filesystem and run the installgrub command. I have not had any luck so far. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss

It's always a good idea to archive the output of zfs list -r along with the data. -- Ian. ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
