1. I have 2 NVMe setup as a mirror on proxmox #1 (PVE7), let's call it `apool`
2. If I move the 2 NVMe to proxmox #2 (PVE8), what are the steps required to mount them again as `apool`?
 
Hello, this should be:

zpool import -f apool
 
But that will only import the pool. To actually use it in PVE to store VMs or whatever you also need to add it as a storage. Could be done in the webUI at "Datacenter -> Storage -> Add -> ZFS"

Correct, or edit the /etc/pve/storage.cfg to add it manually :)
