I'm trying to migrate a NCP2 based server to a server at a new facility. I've 
created a clone/snapshot of the current boot filesystem, compressed it, copied 
it to the new machine which is running the base NCP2 install and have received 
the filesystem something like the following:

On current machine "zedrick"

  # zfs send syspool/rootfs-nmu-...@20100111 | gzip > 
zedrick--syspool-rootfs-nmu-042.20100111.gzip

Then installed base NCP2 on machine cwnexenta and copied via scp the gzip file 
to /tmp and received the filesystem

  # gunzip -c -d /tmp/zedrick--syspool-rootfs-nmu-042.20100111.gzip | zfs 
receive syspool/rootfs-nmu-042

On cwnexenta the filesystem appears properly

  # zfs list
  NAME                      USED   AVAIL   REFER   MOUNTPOINT
  syspool                  13.0G    119G   24.5K   legacy
  syspool/rootfs-nmu-000   1.08G    119G    831M   legacy
  syspool/rootfs-nmu-042   11.9G    119G   11.9G   legacy

but apt-clone doesn't list the new filesystem for activation/promotion with 
`apt-clone -a`

  # apt-clone -l
  A  C  BOOTFS         TITLE
  o  o  rootfs-nmu-000 Nexenta Core Platform "Hardy" [initial]

What do I need to do to make this filesystem bootable? Is my approach valid?
