Thanks for the input but that did not help, I have tried something similar before, the error message returned was the same.

P.S.
The rpool mounts perfectly fine with the live cd, this is a fresh install on this hardware, it's not ported from anywhere.

Unless I'm missing something.

The phys_path attribute in your disk label for your rpool needs to be updated, as it sounds like the rpool was created on different hardware which had different device paths than the machine you're trying to boot on here.

A quick way to fix this is to boot off the install CD or USB image and:

zpool import -R /a -f rpool

That action alone will update the attribute and you should then be able to boot normally.

Hey,

We're testing a new hardware deployment and we're having some trouble with this server type.  The cpqary3 driver included with the omnios stable is obsolete, and I replaced it in the shell before the install.

The server is a HP DL 360 g8 with a P420i Smart array.

OmniOS installs just fine after replacing the driver but after the initial reboot the kernel panics, with the error message (see attachment for screenshot hopefully it's visible)

NOTICE: Can not read the pool label from '/pci at 0,0/..../sd at 0,0:a'
NOTICE: spa_import_rootpool: error 5
..
..
.

I've googled for similar errors but the fixes mentioned there had no effect (importing and exporting the pool from a live boot)

I've tested with OmniOS OmniOS_Text_r151004, OmniOS_Text_r151006 and OmniOS_Text_bloody_20130208. The same image and procedure to replace the driver works just fine on a DL380g5 with a P400 controler.

While the same procedure works just fine with openindiana 151a7. But I'm not willing to put openindiana in production.


Any pointers how to solve this or what might be causing this?
