Thank you for your help Volodymyr,

1. ZPOOL LIST shows that the pool is listed
NAME    SIZE  ALLOC   FREE    CAP  DEDUP  HEALTH  ALTROOT
bsdr       -      -      -      -      -  FAULTED  -
tank0  49.8G  13.3G  36.5G    26%  1.00x  ONLINE  -

2. ZPOOL IMPORT => no pools available to import
3. zpool import -D -f -R /bsdr -N -F -n -X bsdr =>
Gives error because of condition (#1)
4. ZPOOL IMPORT -D shows 2 BSDR pools:
A) config:	bsdr                   UNAVAIL  insufficient replicas
	  5853256800575798014  UNAVAIL  cannot open  (THIS IS NOT THE POOL I WANT -
THIS ONE IS OLDER POOL, WHOLE-DISK-RAW)
B) config:	bsdr                    UNAVAIL  insufficient replicas
	  17860002997423999070  UNAVAIL  cannot open (THIS SHOULD BE THE POOL I
NEED, BUT LOOK AT PROBLEM IN #5)
5. ZPOOL STATUS -V BSDR shows different guid!!
config:	bsdr                    UNAVAIL      0     0     0
	  12606749387939346898  UNAVAIL      0     0     0  was /dev/ada0p2 (THIS
GUID DOES NOT MATCH THE GUID OF 4-B)
It is normal in my opinion that the guid should not match, but that is why I
cannot import pool 4-B. I must either delete the BSDR POOL that is shown as
"on-line", or import 4-B with another name I think.

Thanks and Regards.
