I recently started playing with TrueNAS and am becoming more comfortable but recently decided to wipe TrueNAS and start over fresh. I was able to import the ZFS volumes and have all my test data including the test VMs I created however, I can't seem to find a way to "import" the virtual machines into the TrueNAS hypervisor.

Any ideas on what step(s) I could be missing? My guess is permissions but unsure where to start.

Thanks in advance

There is no tool yet to import the VMs, so you have to recreate the VMs with the wizard and then reattach the virtual disks.
Add a new VM, at the Disk step, select Use existing disk image, and then pick up your virtual disk.
