I had an issue like this a year or two ago, where every time I used the zfs/zpool tool, the system hung.

I can't remember what the issues was but it happened during a 8.X OS upgrade. I was able to work around it by installing FreeBSD on a USB drive, booted from that, and then did a 'zpool import'.

Try booting onto a new 9.1 disk and see if you can perform a zpool import. If so, then use the zfs tools to destroy and recreate that file system. If you don't have a spare thumb drive or CD, you can try booting single user, moving the ZFS cache (/boot/zfs/zpool.cache) out of the way, and then attempting to start up zfs manually (/etc/rc.d/hostid and /etc/rc.d/zfs) and see how far you can get.

  • i wrote default tools zfs|zpool didnt work with my pools. I need to do it something else :( Dec 14, 2012 at 13:39
  • If the tools for it do not work, then you will need to boot from CD and try to make a force import on it. zpool import -F zroot if it does not help, then in that case you might have to recreate your zpool. In this case a backup will be important.

  • does recreate pool save information inside pools? and recreate mean destroy and create? because destroy not work... And ofcause i do all of it from another system(boot from flash with freebsd) Dec 15, 2012 at 18:59
  • recreate does mean destroy and create. Doing this will destroy completely the data inside your pools. So you should make backup of what you can. If even by booting from a cd/flash drive you are not able to destroy the pool then your next step should be to wipe out the partition table and recreate a new one. After this, create the pool again and recover the data that was previously backed up.

  • CAREFUL! zpool import -F is potentially destructive. It is not at all the same thing as zpool import -f (which shouldn't be needed, either).
