I want to add a new data set to an existing pool in TrueNAS CORE 13.0-U3.1. The instructions I found says to go to root of the pool and click on the 3 dots.
I don't have 3 dots to click on when I go to my pool, so how can I actually add a new data set.
Thanks

There's some ambiguity when it comes to ZFS in regards to a "pool" and a "root dataset".

You have to create child datasets under the "root dataset" (which happens to have the same name as the "pool".)

The three dots will be located to the right of the "root dataset" (not the "pool".)
