ZFS Storage Vanished

Hi all, I’m new to Proxmox and have been having a great time installing TrueNAS Home Assistant so far. Everything seemed to be working well…until yesterday.

I have 8x4TB HDDs in a ZFS Raid 10 Pool that was working fine, but now the following occurs:

  • There is a grey question mark icon on the storage icon.
  • The storage is listed as not active, and when I do a ‘zpool status’ command it does not show (but my SSD does).
  • When I click on “VM Disks” I see the following error could not activate storage 'RAID10', zfs error: cannot import 'RAID10': no such pool available (500)
  • Interestingly, TrueNAS with SMB and Plex (with media on this same pool) are all working perfectly as if there was no issue. It seems that Proxmox is the only problem – but it is an issue as I can’t create new VMs that use this storage.
I have searched everywhere but no luck. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated!
 
You can't have the same zfs pool in proxmox and in TrueNAS vm.

Thanks for the reply Gabriel. I think you might be onto something! Here is a screenshot of TrueNAS hardware config. These are the same disks that I made the ZFS pool from.

have you tried add zfs pool in proxmox storage ? because DON'T do it.
You can try to export zpool from proxmox shell, then boot vm.
i don't know if proxmox auto mount all zfs at boot
