[OpenIndiana-discuss] 4k zpool version no longer available?

Reboot doesn't change anything. zpool is still created with ashift=9
So either the usage of sd.conf is not in 151_a5, or the VID/PID are different from what you suggested above.
How can I find or read out the VID/PID that the drive is reporting?
