I’m having a problem importing a 9disk pool in to FreeNAS-11.3-U3.2. When importing the encrypted pool through the interface it only shows the 8 disks hanging of the LSI 9211-8I (da0 to da7). There is a ninth disk not shown, hanging of a Marvell 88SE9230 (ada1). The GUI will decrypt the drives using the key but pool list is empty.

All disks are showing up in the GUI and I have checked using 'geom disk list' that all the details are correct. The server has a Xeon E5504 with a 96Gib of memory.

FreeNAS-11.2-U8 gives the same problem. FreeNAS-11.3-U2 will mount the pool and there was access via the command line but the pool is not included in the GUI.

Any though how to debug this?

For completeness this is what I get when I try to import the pool via the command line

Code:
root@freenas[~]# zpool import
   pool: tank
     id: 15006170452625342981
  state: ONLINE
 action: The pool can be imported using its name or numeric identifier.
 config:

zpool export tank

Then import with GUI.

You may want to see if you have multiple datasets trying to mount as /tank/backup/FromElephant and /tank/backup/FromFester ...
