Is there a way to migrate a sliced (mirrored) rpool on disks with msdos partition table to gpt partioned disks (EFI lable)

You can remove one part of the mirror, attach it as whole disk to mirror and then do it for the second part.

Be sure to experiment in VM first.

That is the great (and best practices) advice, but I think he actually wanted to keep using Partitions/Slices also out of GPT disk(s), too.

Of course it is always better to use full-disk(s) for pools, because of illumos using disk cache better with fuill-disk, but it is possible to install and use also GPT partitions and make full-partition slice under it. (give empty space to installer to make GPT partition and Slice in it)
