I had a dataset that would decrypt when booting, it was using a key.
During some maintenance, I deleted several datasets which caused some issues (kernel panic led to zfs services not starting) this was all resolved (potentially a bug in zfs).
However during troubleshooting I set the datasets to use a passphrase, which to my understanding needs to be unlocked manually and I was doing this.
Some apps will not start while those datasets are locked, and so I wanted to change back to using a key so that they are automatically unlocked when I reboot.
For some reason, after changing back to using a key, they will not unlock automatically when I restart.
Anyone know why? the datasets can be decrypted with keys from the UI after the system comes up. But it doesnt seem to be working during the boot process anymore.
