Just for the record, since your reply seems to imply that the -T
option is only available on Linux:

The -T option of zpool import has been present in FreeBSD for years,
but is undocumented (same as in Solaris/OpenIndiana). It has been
mentioned in some ZFS recovery guides (most written for Solaris) and
it actually works quite well (I used it to recover an inconsistent pool
and helped somebody else who has lost access to his ZFS file-systems).
