[SOLVED] Proxmox 4.0: Failed to boot after zfs install : cannot import rpool: no such pool

[renss78]

I completely zeroed the disks and reinstalled. Now it works.

That does NOT mean the topic is solved, come on formatting/zeroing the disks....

We have the same problem after a update of Proxmox....

Had this happen as well under 4.4.15-1-pve.. added a cache drive to rpool, same exact symptoms. Imported rpool, removed cache, rebooted, all good.

Bug

I solved this same problem with a ZFS Raid 1 partition (onboard ICH10R, SSD's) by changing to IDE (compatible mode) from AHCI. I used the latest BIOS available from Supermicro (in my case).

Thanks @Boomstam, interesting idea.. in my case all the drives are connected to AOC-SAT2-MV8 cards, so I'm out of luck there.

BTW, still having this happen, tracking in another thread: https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/failed-to-import-pool-rpool.29942/

I had similar problem with HP server. After installation choosing raid 10 it failed to boot - no such pool. Lsblk showed the two of 4 HDDs had no second partition. I tried everything but raid10 failed to create at installation. I successfully created raid 5 and raid 1 (2 hdds). So i went another way and kept raid 1 installation changed zfs settings to mount hdds by id and extended raid 1 to raid 10, updated initramfs and success!
