Apologies if I am posting in the wrong thread: I don't have an issue, but rather a suggestion.

Is it possible to include the provision for your zfs plugin to create zpools on luks disks (i.e. dev/mapper devices)? As of now, it only shows actual disks.

I for one prefer not to use zfs' built-in encryption. And I always encrypt my data. Luks is very convenient given that keyfiles can be stored in a decrypted /root, and I can even use clevis to provide auto-boot-decryption options.

The way I create zpools on luks now is to manually create the zpool at the command line, then I can log into Houston and your module instantly sees the new pool (so I can mod/add datasets etc.). I wonder if would be cleaner/better(?) to even perform the creation from within your plugin (?) It's by no means essential since there is an easy workaround, but I thought it's easy to suggest.

THANK YOU for the excellent app. V/R

Andrew
