‐x force-zpool-import Option

This option applies to all zpool resources specified in the zone configuration and instructs the zones framework to forcibly import any ZFS storage pools that might appear to be in use, such as by another system. This mimics the behavior of zpool import -f command.

This option facilitates importing ZFS storage pools onto a new system during zone migration when the ZFS storage pools were never properly exported on another system, for example, by using the zoneadm detach or zoneadm uninstall commands. In these situations, the forcible import must be applied to all ZFS storage pools configured for a particular zone.
