How did I do this?

I have my SystemDataSet set to be on Pool A.
Sometime later, I added a pair of SSD drives in a separate pool. Let's call it pool B.
Currently, my SystemDataSet is still set to be on Pool A, but I can see that all my jails in the iocage folder are stored on the SSD pool (B).
I probably did this to improve my performance in jails.

Without a doubt, I followed a tutorial some years ago on how to do this, but I can't seem to find that tutorial or any traces of how it works.

Does anyone have an idea how I made this "magic" happen?
I did check to see if the iocage folder in pool A is somehow "linked" to the other folder, but "ls -Fla" is not showing me that. Maybe there is another way to show me this, but I don't know how to check that. (I used ls -i) but that does not make any sense to me.

Any ideas?

In the GUI, Jails -> Click the sprocket in the upper right corner -> Notice you can change the location of your jails here.

It is only easy if you know where to look, otherwise it isn't easy. We have all been there. Glad I could help.
