Johnny Liu stated: < Thanks Casper. < < Yes, I tried and Ican import zpool from the broken be. I still need to manually rebuild my luns etc from these zfs vols. < Apparently some of the old pkg scripts did something bad on the system. Surprisingly the smf seems to be quite fragile in this respect. < I hate to switch to old be rather than to recover the broken one if I can.
pkg may be able to help ? 'pkg verify' in the broken BE may show the extent of the damage and then 'pkg fix' may be able to .. fix.. any damage. I'd snapshot the BE before running pkg fix in any case.
