Perhaps slightly elegant, you can do the new pool/rsync thing on the 11.1 live CD so you don't actually have to stand up a new system to do this. Assuming this is x86 and VirtualBox works on Illumos, you could fire up a VM to do this as well. Bob Sent from my iPhone On Dec 13, 2012, at 12:

At this point, the only thing would be to use 11.1 to create a new pool at 151's version (-o version=) and top level dataset (-O version=). Recreate the file system hierarchy and do something like an rsync. I don't think there is anything more elegant, I'm afraid. That's what I did yesterd

That is a touch misleading. This has always been the case since S10u2. You have to create the pool AND the file systems at the oldest versions you want to support. I maintain a table of pool and version numbers on my blog (blogs.oracle. com/bobn) for this very purpose. I got lazy the othe

Oracle effectively forked ZFS with the release of Solaris 11 by not open-sourcing any of the ZFS code. Solaris 11 includes ZFSv31 or higher. The last open-source release of ZFS was ZFSv28. Thus, if you create a pool on Solaris 11+ that you want to import on other systems, you have to manually te
