Adding to Daniel's good answer, you may also want to use an
"alternate root" and/or rename the old rpool (especially
if the new system's one is also called "rpool") as in:

# zpool import -f -R /oldrpool rpool oldrpool

This would keep old rpool's tree (including absolute mount
points from FS properties) mounted under a dedicated /oldrpool
mountpoint.

Apparently if you already have an "rpool" of the new system,
you would have to use the numeric GUID for the import.

Run "zpool import" to print the pools which your system sees
as available but not imported, beside the name there is a
long string of numbers. Use it in place of "rpool" in the
import commands.
