Comment on TrueNAS Scale, hard disks, and pools

How strange! Been using truenas scale for a couple years now and this is the first I’m hearing about this issue. You have to re add your disks to the pool each time you power cycle??

It seems to either be completely fine and a power cycle makes no difference - or it loses the whole structure. I don't know how I'm supposed to pull the disks back in. It doesn't seem to detect that they're already setup as part of a pool.
The pool I've created doesn't vanish but it seems my only option for it is "manage devices" which takes me to the "Add VDEVs to the Pool" menu where my three disks show up as unassigned. The only presented option seems to be to wipe them in order to add them back to the pool.
Trying to search for this stuff doesn't seem to give me anything useful. I don't know what the intended behaviour is and what it is that I'm doing wrong. I would expect what should happen is that the disks come back online and get automatically added back to the pool again but no, apparently not?

Since ZFS keeps the config info on disk, I’m with another commenter wondering about your disk health.
Check the SMART data for each drive.
