Did you try a read-only import as well? I THINK it goes like this: zpool import -o ro -o cachefile=none -F -f badpool
Did you manage to capture any error output? For example, is it an option for you to set up a serial console and copy-paste the error text from the serial terminal on another machine? As far as I know there are no other releases of Solaris 11 yet, and since the code is now developed behind closed doors (due to be opened after Solaris 11 OS public GA release), no other implementations of ZFS match its v31 features. In part (another part being licensing) this is why the open community at large shunned the S11X release - its ZFS version not yet interoperable (unlike the options with OpenIndiana on different kernels and FreeBSD all supporting zpool v28, not so sure Linux-FUSE - but maybe it is close too), and you can't look at the source code to see what might go wrong, or build a debug version which would not kernel-panic. Speaking of which, you might try to enforce dumping the kernel memory to a dedicated volume/slice/partition so as to stacktrace it with the kernel debugger. Maybe that would yield something... //Jim -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
