Cannot import rpool: more than one matching pool

[akulbe]

I just switched out my motherboard. I'm doing a reinstall on a system that previous had a Z-2 formatted install of PVE. I'm not sure I got the disks back in the same order, because new cables… but I got this error on the first boot. How can I get this machine back up and running?

Thanks for your help.

I think I got it, because it said there was corrupted data. I did "zpool import <long string of numbers>" and exit, and it booted… but how do I *fix* it now?

I don't think the drives are damaged, but how do I get the pool back to a healthy state?

Did you wipe the old disks or delete the ZFS filesystem before using them again?
The error message said it found more than one "rpool". It probably finds the old one.

I did not, as I didn't know I would need to. I have 5 drives in this system, 4 of them in the new pool. How do I fix this so that the system will boot normally, without me having to do the manual "zpool import 74823742389472394" every time?

What is the current status of rpool on the running system?
Could you post the output of zpool status and zpool import?

I ended up getting this ironed out.
