I have a 4TB disk connected via USBv2, and have some problems. Does anyone know if Solaris Express has problems with USB and 4TB disks? Have anyone of you succeeded using 4TB USB disks with Solaris Express?

The problems are: I create the zpool and a zfs filesystem, and export it. Then I try to import it, and it does not work. Nothing happens with import, no output, nothing. The system is not aware of the zpool, it is not connected. Then I try
# zpool status zfsTank
cannot open 'zfsTank' : no such pool

I can see the disk in "format" and I can force a recreation of a new zpool. Then:
# zpool export zfsTank
cannout unmount '...zfsTank' : device busy

So, I can see it in format and create a zpool. When I export it I can not import it again. Anyone know what the problem might be?
 
What would possess you to want to use ZFS on a USB drive? Just pull the drive and put it in your case?
