yep if you have no zpool.cache file under /boot/zfs/ then no pools will be
imported

Thanks for the replies, all.

An import and upgrade was all that was needed.

This is true, a 'zpool import' will likely be necessary.  I believe 
'zpool import' by itself will just list any pools which ZFS finds by 
searching disks in /dev.  You will need to 'zpool import ' 
afterwards to actually import the storage pool.


As you've said that it's a clean install, it may warn you that the pool 
is associated with another system (I saw this when migrating from 
9-Current back to 8.0).  You can simply pass -f to zpool import to 
safely force the operation.

ZFS pools gone?

2009-11-25 Thread cali clarke
I just did a clean install of 8.0-RELEASE.

I am _CERTAIN_ that the drives with ZFS on them were not touched by
the installer.

Having booted the system (with zfs enabled in rc.conf):

# zpool list
no pools available
# zfs list
no datasets available

Any assistance would be helpful.
