Moving zpool from a global zone to an ldom

Good day

I am going to be moving a zpool from a global zone to an ldom. I will be performing the following process and was wondering if anyone could add/warn of any possible issues in my procedure:

  1. Mirror current disk in zpool ( both disks are from the SAN)
  2. Remove original disk from the mirror (backup in case something goes wrong)
  3. Deport the pool from the global zone
  4. Import the pool into the guest ldom
  5. Mount the zfs filesystem

Currently the zpool has a zfs filesystem that is mounted into a local zone. I want to move the zpool as-is, into the guest ldom, and mount the filesystem in the guest ldom. The only difference would then be, the zpool has moved from the global zone to an ldom. I will be adding the lun as a vdisk and configuring it into the guest ldom, before importing the pool to bring in the zfs filesystem.

Howdy, Stranger!
