[OpenIndiana-discuss] migrating zfs pools

Hi,

I have a pool, archive, with zfs files:

/archive
/archive/gary
/archive/dani
/archive/ian
<and so on...>

I want to replace this with a new set of disks along with the 
appropriate properties set (smb sharing, etc.).

Basically, I want to copy the complete pool to a new pool and then 
import that pool as the original.  The goal is to retire the original 
pool configuration. Sounds like something that many have done before so 
I wanted to tap on the experts who can provide direction and caveats.

Thanks,
Gary
