Hi Cris,

Do you still have the following file: /boot/zfs/zpool.cache ?
I guess that with the kernel upgrade you have just replaced that :)=20

This is the file that you can create with:
zpool  set cachefile=3D/boot/zfs/zpool.cache <pool name>

Regards,=20

Subject: Problems booting into ZFS on recent stable/9


  I had a sparc64 (Netra X1) running a stable/9 from late March 2013.  Actu=
ally, the kernel may've been a bit newer than that as I was working with fo=
lks to diagnose and repair some Netra-X1 specific issues.  But, ZFS worked =
fine.  I have two pools, zroot as a RAID1 (using equally sized partitions a=
t the front of two large disks), and a zdata that is a large pool of the re=
maining space of both disks concatenated together.

  After installing a kernel from a build of [yesterday's] stable/9 today, I=
 now get a failure when trying to boot, which can be seen at the end of thi=
s clip from the end of the boot messages below.

  Is anyone aware of a change in recent months that might've caused this, o=
r have any idea what I may've done wrong?  In google'ing I've seen a few po=
sts talking about ways to import the zfs pool to adjust the cache file, but=
 I'm not sure if that is or isn't my problem.  I don't think I did anything=
 specific with configuring cache files for either pool.

  Thoughts are welcome.  I don't have physical access to the machine for qu=
ite a few more hours, but when I do should be able to net-boot into the ear=
lier freebsd stable/9 that I originally installed onto this host, and can t=
ry a few more things.

                                    - Chris
