I just upgraded from 7.2 to 8.0.
Under 7.2 the pool was like :
        NAME           STATE     READ WRITE CKSUM
        tank           ONLINE       0     0     0
          raidz1       ONLINE       0     0     0
            ad6p1     ONLINE       0     0     0
            ad10p1     ONLINE       0     0     0
            ad8p1     ONLINE       0     0     0
            ad4p1  ONLINE       0     0     0

I'd like to use gpt labels or gptids reimporting the pool.
# ls /dev/gpt
disk1 disk2 disk3 disk4
# ls /dev/gptid

I did # zpool import -d /dev/gpt tank
and I got
        tank           ONLINE
          raidz1       ONLINE
            ada1p1     ONLINE
            ada3p1     ONLINE
            ada2p1     ONLINE
            gpt/disk4  ONLINE

Now, how to force zpool import to only use gpt labels (or uuids) ? Or at 
least get back to coherent situation ( zpool export tank /  zpool import 
gives the same now. and zpool import -d /dev, as zpool import -d 
/dev/gptid gives nothing ) ?

Thanks in advance.

Arnaud
