# https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ZFS#Using_zfs-mount-generator
# Tested on Ubuntu 22.04

# This script came to life when we were having issues with importing the ZFS pool (ncdata) on Ubuntu 22.04.
# After some forum reading and some digging on Github, this is the result.
# The intention here is to make the import process more robust, and less prune to fail
# Essentially, changing from 'zfs-mount.service' to 'zfs-mount-generator' which by many has been working better.
