Problems rename Pool webGUI - CLI

[K.J]

Can someone explain to me step by step how to change the pool name from:
BackUp Data Photo Film to BackUp. The spaces need to be taken out.
After exporting from the webgui the cli says cannot open. Dataset does not exist.
See photos.

With the pool exported, you need to use import to rename it...

zpool import -R /mnt/BackUp "BackUp Data Photo Film" BackUp

Then you will have a pool called BackUp... but you won't see it in the GUI...

zpool export BackUp

Then import it in the GUI and all is good.

@sretalla

get this message again. Sorry if I don't understand.

OK, let's see what it thinks it's named...

zpool import

OK, it's going to be much simpler if you replace that part in the "" with the ID number.

zpool import -R /mnt/BackUp 6415660709855509590 BackUp

 

[K.J]

No

 

[sretalla]

OK; we'll try it without the Root switch...

zpool import 6415660709855509590 BackUp

Great it worked out.
After rebooting, I was able to import it as a BackUp

Thanks !!!
