Hi community,

Here's the thing: I have an encrypted volume in raidz1 on 3 drives on 9.3.1.
With the command line, I can geli attach them with the passphrase and then zpool import the volume.
Nevertheless, from the GUI I can't do anything since I need the encryption key to import the volume.
When I replaced one of the disk, I have rekeyed it and now the older key isn't working anymore...

So the question is: is there a way to get the volume in the GUI ? I have got the passphrase and encryption key form all individual drives in the volume...

May thanks in advance

Hi,

Yes I managed to work around it. I used the command line to reset the key I had on the different drives with
geli -K mykey mydrive
and tried to import it in Freenas. It managed to decrypt it, to detect the pool but could not mount it (couldn't find database file...?!)
So I reinstall Freenas 9.3.1 (I had done a GUI upgrade before) from scratch and then it worked.
