[OpenIndiana-discuss] Zpool crashes system on reboot and import

[CJ Keist]

I not able to set any attributes on ZFS FS's when the pool has been 
imported as readonly:

zpool import -o readonly=on data

Not sure that is different from your command: "-o ro"

zfs set readonly=on data/projects/ALP
cannot set property for 'data/projects/ALP': dataset is read-only
