Hello

A customer recently had a power outage. Prior to the outage, they did a graceful shutdown of their system.
On power-up, the system is not coming up due to zfs errors as follows:
cannot mount 'rpool/export': Number of symbolic links encountered during path name traversal exceeds MAXSYMLINKS
mount '/export/home': failed to create mountpoint.

The possible cause of this might be that a symlink is created pointing to itself since the customer stated that they created lots of symlink to get their env ready. However, since /export is not getting mounted, they
can not go back and delete/fix the symlinks.

Can someone suggest a way to fix this issue?

Thanks
Ramin Moazeni
