[ZFS] recover destroyed zpool - what are the available options?

[Beeblebrox]

I think I might have a better understanding of the situation.

'zpool status' and 'zdb -C' commands both show bsdr properties as:
pool_guid: 17852168552651762162
children[0]:  \  type: 'disk'  \  guid: 12606749387939346898

Whereas 'zpool import -D' and 'zdb -l' commands give the bsdr properties as:
pool_guid: 12018916494219117471
vdev_tree:  \  type: 'disk  \  top_guid: 17860002997423999070

Since the LABEL info on the HDD is the more relevant data, I should be using
the output of zdb -l, and disregard the pool that shows itself as "already
imported - albeit faulted". I therefore plan to import the bsdr pool with a
newname and should run the import command as:

zpool import -D -f -R /bsdr -N -F -n -X 12018916494219117471 newname
Any objections? We must also keep in mind that '-D' flag is showing TWO
deleted bsdr pools, so I must use the unique ID.
Please let me know if I should go ahead and run above command.
Thanks and Regards.
