We have a new server running that even though when installed initially booted fine, now seems to be experiencing the ZFS boot issue from the article:
https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Storage:_ZFS
As mentioned in the title this is two SSD drives configured in a mirror.
However, if we use the boot option to select the boot drive and select the second drive in the pool it will boot just fine. So it seems like it might be more a grub issue with the boot loader on the first drive. I have not worked a lot with ZFS drives being the boot and wonder what the correct method is to reinstall grub on the first drive to see if that fixes things or possibly the issue is something else.
Looking for advice to resolve this, do not want to have to manage the boot process every time this device needs to be restarted. Thanks!
