Hi,

I have fixed this problem a couple weeks ago, but haven't found the time to report it until now.

Cindy Swearingen was very kind in contacting me to resolve this issue, I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to her.

We have not found the root cause of the error. Cindy suspected about some known bugs in release 5/09 that have been fixed in 10/09, but we could not confirm that as the real cause of the problem. Anyway, I went ahead and re-installed the operating system with the latest Solaris release (10/09) and "zpool import" worked like there was nothing wrong.

I have scrubbed the pool and no errors were found. I'm using the system since the OS was re-installed (exactly 10 days now) without any problems.

If you get yourself in a situation where "zpool import" hangs and never finishes because it hangs while mounting some of the ZFS filesystems, make sure you try to import that pool on the newest stable system before wasting too much time debugging the problem.

Thanks,
Eduardo Bragatto.
