How to make ZFS-zpools automatically mount after boot?
The first option is preferable and faster. To automatically import the zpools, change the value from 1 to 0: File: /etc/init/zpool-import.conf Restarted, and the zpool ZFS mounts were mounted automatically. I had the same problem on a clean install on 16.04 LTS.
When to use the ZFS mount command with no arguments?
Use of the zfs mount command is necessary only when you need to change mount options, or explicitly mount or unmount file systems. The zfs mount command with no arguments shows all currently mounted file systems that are managed by ZFS. Legacy managed mount points are not displayed. For example:
Can a legacy file system be mounted to ZFS?
File systems can also be explicitly managed through legacy mount interfaces by using zfs set to set the mountpoint property to legacy. Doing so prevents ZFS from automatically mounting and managing a file system. Legacy tools including the mount and umount commands, and the /etc/vfstab file must be used instead.
How can I prevent a file system from being mounted?
To prevent a file system from being mounted, set the mountpoint property to none. In addition, the canmount property can be used to control whether a file system can be mounted. For more information about the canmount property, see canmount Property.
Is the ZFS pool a separate filesystem?
Normally /boot is not a separate filesystem. Yes, zroot is encrypted, bootfs not. I believe I’ve seen similar problems to this one before, involving awkward configuration of the /boot folder. When a pool is imported, the /boot/zfs/zpool.cache file is updated.
I ended up putting a mountall command in /etc/rc.local. Using Ubuntu 16.04 zfs, there is something I found that fixes mounting zfs shares at boot without creating rc.local or systemd scripts, and without manually running zfs set sharesmb=on after each boot.
How to import a pool into ZFS file system?
This command imports the exported pool dozer using the new name zeepool. The new pool name is persistent. Note – You cannot rename a pool directly. You can only change the name of a pool while exporting and importing a pool.
How to create a ZFS root file system?

Why does Ubuntu not auto Mount after boot?
I literally built two identical servers, placed identical model HDs in each one and installed Ubuntu and the ZFS PPA at the same time from the same sources. One would automount, the other wouldn’t. Even following the extra FAQ instructions about adding a sleep in the mountall.conf file, etc., it never would mount at boot.
