Cannot mount existing zpool with identifier from /mnt/disk/by-id/xxxx Status in zfs-linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Description: Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS Release: 16.04 zfs-dkms 0.6.5.6-0ubuntu15 I cant mount/install my zpool. so i tried reinstalling zfslinux-utils, which gives me three error messages like this: "zfs-mount.service is a disabled" or a static unit, not starting it."... If something doesn't work I try googling error messages. most answers not totally like my problem but related to dkms, so I tried loading zfs-dkms and reinstalling zfslinux-utils. I created the zpool with id from /mnt/disk/by-id/ - which is zfs good- practice. This may be causing problems with the mount. I dont know... Cheers.
