I did a search on sunsolve on CR 6967658 and came across another bug report (6984043) on update 9 (which has 142909-17 as kernel patch). It claims that after upgrading to update 9, zpool create consistently panic the server. Did anyone run into this problem?

There is no generic patch delivering a fix yet, but thought this might help if you are contacting support. Best, -Don Bleek Thomas wrote: Hello, just a warning and perhaps a request for some advices. We have a Sun StorEdge SE3510 connected to a V240. This Raid is used as JBOD (12 independend disks, 5x2 mirrored, 2 spares) for ZFS and Patch testings. I have 2 pools, one on this array, another on 2 local scsi-disks. After installing all current patches I can't mount the pool on the Raid, the local one works. The disks are seen with format, zpool status (actually zpool import) gives: r...@nftp:/>zpool import pool: tank id: 10696630212093874974 state: UNAVAIL status: The pool is formatted using an older on-disk version. action: The pool cannot be imported due to damaged devices or data. config: tank UNAVAIL insufficient replicas mirror-0 UNAVAIL corrupted data c2t40d0 ONLINE c2t40d1 ONLINE mirror-1 UNAVAIL corrupted data c2t40d3 ONLINE c2t40d2 ONLINE mirror-2 UNAVAIL corrupted data c2t40d4 ONLINE c2t40d5 ONLINE mirror-3 UNAVAIL corrupted data c2t40d6 ONLINE c2t40d7 ONLINE mirror-4 UNAVAIL corrupted data c2t40d8 ONLINE c2t40d9 ONLINE r...@nftp:/> 2 things I have noticed: 1. The two spares have vanished (but they are seen with format) 2. The names of the submirros have changed, before the patch, they are all named simply "mirror". I have still not done a "zpool upgrade" because I assume, that I will not able to mount on the older, unpatched system. After booting into the old BE (thanks, Live Upgrade), the pool is online again. So I tried to find the guilty patch with backing out patch for patch. After backing out the kernel patch 142909-17 the problem has vanished but now I don't know how to proceed:-( Any hints other than opening a case, which I will do after getting no responses?
