zpool version

Tried to import a pool created using openindiana but it is reported as newer version.
I thought both were version 28.
Is this true ??

The latest versions of OI (and I believe all Illumos ZFS implementations-- not sure about *BSD) create a zpool with a version of '5000' and separate flags for supported options; this is to prevent confusion between Oracle ZFS versions and open source ZFS versions, since versions > 28 will not necessarily be compatible between closed and open forks.

You still have the option to create a zpool on OI using version=28 and it should work fine (untested).

yes most recent OI uses feature flags. So you can't import that kind of pool yet. Don't know what the plans are for zevo to port feature flags?? :)
