Hello, I setup encrypted ZFS pool and rebooted PVE, now one of the VMs dependent on that ZFS pool will not start. I believe it has to do with me setting up a password for the encrypted disk, but I am not able to find out where to put in the password to unlock the disk from encryption. Thanks for any help.
 
SOLVED:

Just needed to go into Shell and run zfs load-key <name_of_datapool> and then type password. Ba da bing, ba da boom.
