FYI:

One can replace the "zpool import -f -a -o cachefile=none -N" line with this:
    local pipe="/tmp/zpool_pipe"
    no_import_pools=$(mkfifo ${pipe}; zpool import -f -a -o cachefile=none -N 2> ${pipe} | cut -d \' -f 2 ${pipe}; rm ${pipe})

If one wants a list of the pools which can not be imported.

To just discard the error though and keep update-grub from failing this works fine too:

local discard_pool_import_err=""
discard_pool_import_err=$(zpool import -f -a -o cachefile=none -N 2>/dev/null || true)

Maybe that workaround could be added so update-grub at least doesn't fail if a zpool which can't be imported is seen?
