I cannot migrate CT from one node to another, because their storages have different names. :-(

1. Is it enough to add extra zpool (with appropriate name) to the target node? Will migration be successful then?

2. Actually... I consider this limitation completely stupid. Why the hell migration to differently named storage is not allowed? Can anyone enlighten me? :-)
I have named my zpools differently for a reason: This way in case of a hardware failure I could quickly move disks from one node to another - and almost immediately have all data available again. There will be no problem with names overlapping. (Is this stupid idea? Why?)
