ZFS zpool vanished after reboot

[rdx_in]

I am running FreeBSD in Oracle cloud, Created zpool with 3 block volumes and rebooted the machine, now I don't see zpool, but if I try to create zpool again same disk it gives below error.

root@01:~ # zpool create storage da1 da2 da3
invalid vdev specification
use '-f' to override the following errors:
/dev/da1 is part of potentially active pool 'storage'
/dev/da2 is part of potentially active pool 'storage'
/dev/da3 is part of potentially active pool 'storage'
root@01:~ # zpool list
no pools available
root@01:~ #

am i missing any steps to use zfs

root@01:~ # cat /etc/rc.conf | grep zfs
openzfs_load="YES"
root@01:~ #

root@01:~ # uname -r
13.1-RELEASE

please let me know if you need more information

try zpool import

 

[rdx_in]

that worked, do I need to do that at every reboot?

 

[rdx_in]

also set created under that pool was also gone

normally the zpool configs are written in the "zpool cachefile" which is /boot/zfs/zpool.cache
