Problem with storage replication

I'm having a problem replicating an entire ZFS pool between nodes.

Nodes: pve1 / pve2
ZFS Pool name: st-spinners (on both nodes)
Datacentre > Storage > st-spinners shows both nodes.

When adding the 2nd pool from pve2, I first created the pool without 'adding storage'. I then went to Datacentre > Storage and edited the entry for st-spinners which was there because I'd created it on pve1 already, and I selected pve2 so that both nodes were shown.

I have the pool mounted to an LXC based Fileserver on pve1 called fs1 and it has 12TB of data on it. I want to replicate that to the second node (pve2) which has another Fileserver, fs2 with it's local st-spinners pool mounted to it too.

Have I done something wrong here/misunderstood something? Maybe I have, because I keep seeing articles about replicating individual VM's/LXC's, rather than all the pool data.

Thanks
