Hi

We have following scenario/problem:

Our zpool resides on a single LUN on a Hitachi Storage Array. We are
thinking about making a physical clone of the zpool with the ShadowImage
functionality.

ShadowImage takes a snapshot of the LUN, and copies all the blocks to a
new LUN (physical copy). In our case the new LUN is then made available
on the same host as the original LUN.

After the ShadowImage is taken, we can see the snapshop using the
format(1M) command as an additional disk. But when running "zpool
import" , it only says: "no pools available to import".

I think this is a bug. At least it should say something like "pool with
the same name already imported". I have only tested this on 10 06/06,
but I haven't found anything similar in the bug database, so it has to
be in OpenSolaris as well.
