Failed "zfs-import" service re: VM Storage Pool? What does this mean?

I installed htop on my system because I find it useful when SSH'ing in, and among other things I like to have it alert me to failed services.

I noticed today that my system has one service that failed, and upon further poking around, it's something called zfs-import@vmStore.service, where vmStore is the ZFS mirror storage pool i set up to hold my VM data.

The VM data is held in a dataset on the pool, so I could adjust the volblocksize. I'm not storing anything directly on the pool. PVE might be, if it does that?

What does this mean, and should I be concerned? I'm not seeing any errors in the log on my web UI.
EDIT: ZemaToxic over on Craft Computing's discord says he routinely sees this, too. Apparently, it's just how PVE works? Fails to import on boot but imports before the UI is accessible?
