Long story short import would not work and I was trying to import an old volume and used zpool commands in CLI and managed to get it mounted but now I have copied the data over and removed the volume I am left with a mount point showing in the GUI I would like to get rid of.

Thread about importing here https://forums.freenas.org/index.php?threads/how-can-i-re-import-this-volume.39597/#post-245559

Currently whenever I click browse I have mnt1 showing but as you can see I dont have it showing in the ZFS list of the storage area and need to bin it off:

I imagine I need someone with in-depth BSD knowledge for this one since the GUI still thinks its there so I image n I need to attach something to it and remove it properly to remove it all together?

But do you have a directory called /mnt1/OldNas ? zfs list, and the storage screen, will only show datasets, but you could very easily have created a directory there.

Nope, nothing there at all everything is within MNT im 100% sure and if I do have something there I certainly don't need it.

The question was not, "do you need what's in /mnt1/OldNas?". The question was, "does /mnt1/OldNas exist?". You haven't answered that question.

Go to the shell, and type 'cd /mnt1/OldNas'. Post the result.

OK, now your giving me some insight into how this works.

Code:
[root@freenas ~]# cd /mnt1/OldNas                                            
[root@freenas /mnt1/OldNas]# ls                                              
[root@freenas /mnt1/OldNas]#


Seems it does exist perhaps!

I just killed it off with rm -r /mnt1 it was so simple, thanks for the big fat shove in the right direction!
