Due to an unexpected PBS server reboot, I had lots of errors on my datastore. This is a lab environment, so I decided to start from scratch with that disk.

I remove the datastore, and now it is "stuck" in maintenance mode. It isn't deleted (yet logs show "datastore 'ssd_one_tb' is in datastore is being deleted") and I can't wipe the disk either.

How can I resolve this and re-use that disk ?

took the easy route: shut down server, removed disk from server, restarted server, deleted datastore again (success), shut down server, re-added disk, wiped ZFS pool, wiped disk, re-added disk and datastore
