ZFS: no pools available
 
I failed to import a pool using these commands:
Code:
# zpool status
no pools available

# zpool import
no pools available to import

# zpool import -f tank
cannot import 'tank': no such pool available
I just fixed the problem using this command:
Code:
# zpool import -d /dev/disk/by-id tank

you could post the fix if others have the same problem they can use your solution.

It may be helpful to someone so i post:
ls -l /dev/disk/by-id/
Then possibly the first partition of the drive is the one to mount.
For example:
sudo zpool import -a -d /dev/disk/by-id/ata-Samsung_SSD_abc-part1 -d /dev/disk/by-id/ata-Samsung_SSD_def-part1
(-a switch may work, no need to remember pool name)
If issues, try "man zpool-import"
