The better way of doing it, if I understand right as to what you are trying to do, would be to run zpool import that will show you available zpools. Then you can import the pool using zpool import <poolName> you can even set different mountpoints etc., the export it, and then fix the mountpoints as to where they are supposed to be. Hope this helps. Regards
