Sorry, But i was able to dd zero's to the devices "zpool status" gave for the incorrect zpool, and made it disappear. There are two possible cases that could have made this happen
1. When I first created the zpool (zpool create zfsdata ...) I control-c'd the command. I ran it to completion the next time around. 2. Some of the disks I used, were part of a zpool of the same name, but on a different system. I created a zpool containing those disks and some new disks I am not sure if I can reproduce what I saw. -neel > On Wed, Sep 27, 2006 at 09:53:32AM -0700, Neelakanth Nadgir wrote: > > Is it possible to destroy a pool by ID?
