Bug Description

I've a zfs that automount itself fine. If I plug a USB disk, the enumerated list of disk change and on reboot the zfs doesn't automount anymore and complains on missing device when trying to manually mount it.

The pool was created with:

zpool create -f srv raidz3 /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdc1 /dev/sdd1 /dev/sde1 /dev/sdf1 /dev/sdg1 /dev/sdh1 /dev/sdi1 /dev/sdj1

On boot the removable hdd is enumerated as sdd.

When using pluggable devices it is advisable to use the UUID of the device as this is guaranteed to find the correct device. USB block devices may not be enumerated in order. I suggest re-trying using the UUID of devices and see if this helps.

To find the UUID, use ls /dev/disk/by-uuid/
