FreeNAS-9.2.1.8-RELEASE-x64 (e625626)

This pool has been working for many years without problems. No changes were made recently, though it appears the server rebooted about 12 hours ago.

The "View Volumes" window shows "Tank | Locked | Locked ... etc"

View disks shows all disks.

Rebooting the server doesn't fix, though I see in the messages:

# zpool status
no pools available

# zfs mount -a

(no output)

I'm not quite sure what to do next?

I'm not seeing the expected decrypt icons either, which might be a hint or a sign that I'm on completely the wrong page.

I tried "auto import volume" and used the .key and password seemingly successfully, but I get a "already have a volume with the same name" error. I was hoping not to recreate all my shares, which should be possible, no?

Oh strange, browser problem, I get the volume tiles using an old version of firefox on windows, but not on Linux with more current versions (!). Unfortunately the status seems a bit confused.
will try rebooting.
(status is locked, but the icon is "unlock")

And then the "decrypt" icon appeared and all was well with the world.

So the lesson is that if the dynamic encrypted volume management icons aren't visible on the "view volumes" tab, try a different browser.

If anyone else is running some absurdly old version of FreeNAS (9.x) and finds that modern browsers refuse to render some of the UI, Pale Moon still works (2022, 31.3.0.1 tested). I'm in part posting this for myself because every few years I need to figure this out again.
