      Hi, after run this command:
      zpool status -v
      pool: archi
      state: ONLINE
      status: Some supported and requested features are not enabled on the pool.
      The pool can still be used, but some features are unavailable.
      action: Enable all features using 'zpool upgrade'. Once this is done,
      the pool may no longer be accessible by software that does not support
      the features. See zpool-features(7) for details.
      config:

          NAME        STATE     READ WRITE CKSUM
          archi       ONLINE       0     0     0
            nda0p3    ONLINE       0     0     0
      

      errors: No known data errors

      Should me run "zpool upgrade -a"
      Also during UEFI boot have " Root mount waiting for: CAM" a few times than pfSense booting and working normally!

        No I would not upgrade the ZFS pool. There is no advantage to doing so. In some cases we have seen it break the pool.

        Seeing 'Root mount waiting for: CAM' at boot is expected. You can probably reduce that by setting kern.cam.boot_delay to something lower. It's 10000 by default. But you don't need to.

          kern.cam.boot_delay

          Do you mean set this in System tunable? What figures do you suggest below 10000?

            No it's a loader value so it's set by the system in /boot/loader.conf. If you want to change it you would create the file /boot/loader.conf.local and add an override line there.

            However my suggestion is; do not change it. That s the default and those lines during boot are expected.

                Good advice. I tried it a while back and system became unbootable.
