zfs and solaris system drive failure

Hello everyone. I'm new to Solaris and would love to use it as the OS on a storage server because of zfs however I'm wondering about something. Lets say I have 6 hard drives on the server. 5 of them are set up using zfs and raidz and the Solaris OS is on the 6th drive. If the drive with Solaris dies on me for some reason can I just buy another hard drive, install a fresh copy of Solaris and then still be able to access my zfs pool of drives like nothing happened? Or does zfs store information about the drives on the Solaris partition and if I lose it I lose the ability to use the zfs pool and thus all my data? If I can just reinstall Solaris on a new drive what are the steps required to then access the storage pool?

Thanks everyone
