I don't know but......

Is the error not from mount and it's /export/home that can't be created?

"mount '/export/home': failed to create mountpoint."

Have you tried  mounting 'rpool/export' somewhere else, ike .mnt?

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
