The pools are imported by either zfs-import-scan.service or zfs-import- cache.service. (Which service runs depends on whether /etc/zfs/zpool.cache exists.) They both call `zpool import -a` plus some other arguments. In other words, `zpool import -a` is being run unconditionally, whether pools exist or not.
It would be possible to throw a wrapper script around `zpool import` and run that from those services instead. It could then start zed.service if and only if a pool exists. I'm not sure if this is the best solution, but at first glance, it seems like it would work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to zfs-linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1624540 Title: please have lxd recommend zfs Status in lxd package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in zfs-linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Since ZFS is now in Main (Bug #1532198), LXD should recommend the ZFS userspace package, such that 'sudo lxd init' just works.
