Hello
I have motherboard Intel S2600CP, after installation Proxmox 4.1 zfs raid 10 system doesen`t boot it stops on BusyBox, and there is a massage
Code:
No pool imported. Manually import the root pool
at the command prompt and then exit.
Hint: try: zpool import -R /rpool -N rpool
When I type:
Code:
zpool import -R /rpool -N rpooll
exit
System boots correctly
It Is on fresh installation of proxmox every time i boot it.
I installed proxmox 4, and it is simmilar situation, but only sometimes, it doesent boot once per few boots.
What can I do to solve this problem ?
Please help
 
I had a similar problem and it was that the installation didn't seem to like one of the disks in the zfs pool. I managed to overcome this by manually formatting the disks and then rerun the installation and it seemed to work then.
 
I had the same problem with S2400SC, and as you know (https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/p...t-rpool-wrong-timing-or-something-miss.23934/ ) never solved.
Recently I installed on another system (Fujitsu PC i5) proxmox 4.1 with zfs as raid1 and everything went well, then I installed a Intel SSD (to be used as ZIL) and when booted I had the "no pool imported error", when removed boot went fine. The SSD was never used, but I partitioned in another PC (created GPT partition table, one partition for ZIL and one for L2ARC, no formatting or type selected), reinstalled in the Fujitsu and boot went fine. Repartitoned with parted and set as ZIL and L2ARC and boots fine so far. Mybe I should try again with S2400SC...
 
Hello
We couldn`t find solution in google but My collegue found solution. Problem was in:
/etc/default/zfs
Code:
ZFS_INITRD_PRE_MOUNTROOT_SLEEP='0'  we changed it to 4
update-initramfs -k 4.2.6-1-pve -u
reboot
And it works properly.
Please mark post as solved
