Thanks for the reply. I successfully recreated zbackups, and ZABC-1 wasn't removed because it was already in the cluster. EDIT: Recreating the storage was very simple; the pulldown just had a lot of choices for the ZFS. Snapshot:

Ok, so I ran into an odd problem with a host a few weeks ago, and I'm just now getting the time to try to resolve it. First, a bit of background information: I have a host with eight drives: two 960GB SSDs and six 18tb Seagate Ironwolf. Host is a Dell R720 with PERC H310 Mini with all drives...
