Hello Everyone,
I've had an encrypted zfs pool on my freenas server that I initially created in November 2016. I copied the Geli key, created a passkey, and I copied the config file then. I haven't had any problems with decrypting the pool simply by giving it my password after updating or rebooting. I've also been able to import the pool to a new install of Freenas with the key and passphrase.
My current problem is that I'm trying to upgrade to a fresh install of 11.0 on a new USB. I was able to import the config file just fine but when I go to view volumes to try and decrypt the pool, I feed it the Geli key (the most recent copy I have of the Geli key is from March) and the passkey and it tells me that the pool fails to decrypt.
Should I unmount the pool and try to re-import it?
Can someone clarify what events might re-key the pool?
I haven't added or replaced any drives from the pool since I originally made it.
