Nope, doesn't work.
Try presenting one of those lun snapshots to your host, run cfgadm -al,
then run zpool import.
#zpool import
no pools available to import
It would make my life so much simpler if you could do something like
this: zpool import --import-as yourpool.backup yourpool

Interesting thought. I guess what you'd have to have is an import flag
that allows you to "import as". So you could:<br>
<br>
zpool import --import-as yourpool.backup yourpool<br>
<br>
I definitely see why you'd want to do it. I haven't a clue if you can
