I just tried moving a dump volume form rpool into another pool so I

Nothing ended up in messages and needless to say, there isn't a dump!
Creating a new volume and using that worked fine.
This was on Solaris 10 update 8.
Has anyone else seen anything like this?
The fact that a panic occurred is some kind of bug, but I'm also not
surprised that this didn't work. Dump volumes have specialized behavior
and characteristics and using send/receive to move them (or any other
way to move them) is probably not going to work. You need to extract
the dump from the dump zvol using savecore and then move the resulting file.
