[OpenIndiana-discuss] ZFS Pool configuration hanging around

[Michelle Knight]

I had another drive that was one of that old pool, so I ran a little test.

A relabel didn't work. ZFS still thought the drive was part of the old pool. 
However, re-writing the partition table and running an all free hog did work.

In this case, it looks like I'm going to have to export the data pool, format 
c2t4d0, destroy the partition and then re-insert it in to the pool again.

Any idea why, when you add a drive to a pool, why it apparently keeps the old 
identity somewhere on board the drive?
