I've just noticed that since upgrading from 148 to 151a, 8 of my iSCSI LUNs have vanished, along with their 2 targets. So it isn't just you, Dan.

I can see some evidence of them in the properties of the stmf service, and like Dan, stmfadm list-lu -v shows them as unregistered.

The underlying zvols are still present and (I assume) correct in /dev/zvol/rdsk/blah/blah.

Is the FILENAME you use with import-lu the /dev/zvol/rdsk/... volume device?
