Failed to start Import ZFS pool message on boot

[Kane]

Hello,

I've just done a fresh install of proxmox, added a drive as ZFS to the server and called it "data" and during boot I got the message:

[FAILED] Failed to start Import ZFS pool data

But the system continue to boot and the drive is mounted and work correctly.

After looking around internet and the forum I did not find somebody with the same issue and a fix, at best there was something for a boot that failed and got to busybox that could be solved by delaying the boot time a little. But since everything work it is not that, I still tried the suggested solutions but the message stay.

A call to journalctl -b give me that:

Oct 07 15:37:19 proxmox systemd[1]: Starting Import ZFS pools by cache file...
Oct 07 15:37:19 proxmox systemd[1]: Condition check resulted in Import ZFS pools by device scanning being skipped.
Oct 07 15:37:19 proxmox systemd[1]: Starting Import ZFS pool data...
Oct 07 15:37:20 proxmox zpool[543]: cannot import 'data': no such pool available
Oct 07 15:37:20 proxmox systemd[1]: zfs-import@data.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE
Oct 07 15:37:20 proxmox systemd[1]: zfs-import@data.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.
Oct 07 15:37:20 proxmox systemd[1]: Failed to start Import ZFS pool data.

Did I missed something during the installation? Is there something to do to fix that error message?

Thanks in advance!

I've had the same issue once.

But I actually forgot about it!
You just reminded me, and It hit me like a train.


System runs smooth since 400+ Days.
I would not worry about it.

I agree on it not really being a problem since everything work, but that make me wonder what happen exactly, or if disabling that script could be an idea
