just wondering if anyone can assist. i have just installed solaris 10 x86 recommended patches on a 16 disks server. where first 2 disks are mirrored called rpool, and remaining 14 disks are raid z called spool. upon installing the patches successfully and rebooting server, i am coming up with the following error: --- NOTICE: Can not read the pool label from '/p...@0,0/pci8086,2...@4/pci111d,8...@0/pci111d,8...@4/pci108e,2...@0/d...@0,0:a /p...@0,0/pci8086,2...@4/pci111d,8...@0/pci111d,8...@4/pci108e,2...@0/d...@1,0:a' NOTICE: spa_import_rootpool: error 5, Inc.
