Okay - so I did a fresh install today - imported my configuration, everything appeared - happy.
Under the storage tab, my (encrypted) volume appeared, locked as expected.
Tried to unlock it using just the passphrase, as I normally do when I've had to reboot, no luck - it failed
"failed with: cannot import ....., no such pool available"
Okay - so I go onto Import Volume -> encrypted yes->add all 6 (and the only 6) drives, add the geli.key file, input the correct passphrase. get to step 3, and next to volume there is a drop down menu with nothing in it....This causes the import to fail as it won't let me progress unless I click cancel
At this point I get an email telling me my pool is critical alert, state unknown....
The first time I did this, I began to panic... I tried just unlocking the pool again (with only the passphrase) and like magic it unlocks this time! And the critical alert goes away and everything is fine and dandy.
This is very repeatable, and I can get to the same state just by locking the volume, trying to unlock it - it won't, I try to import it wont, I try to unlock it and it works.
What is occurring? How do I get it back so I don't have to do this each time I reboot?
Cheers
