Am not a zfs guru, but I'll try to help.

Any console log snippets are welcome. What does "showing the guid as 
faulted in the pool" looks like.

What are the guids for all partitions? Do they interlap for different nodes?

ZFS recognizes devices by tasting they vdev labels and not by their 
logical location and naming. It can safely report any vdev location - 
but it requires the same set vdevs to bring pool online.
