It looks like you are using legacy bios. mine is using uefi with a zfs rpool

proxmox-boot-tool status
Re-executing '/usr/sbin/proxmox-boot-tool' in new private mount namespace..
System currently booted with uefi
31FA-87E2 is configured with: uefi (versions: 6.5.11-8-pve, 6.5.13-5-pve)

However, like with everything a method always exists to get it done. Or not if you are concerned.

If you are interested it would look like…

Pool Upgrade

sudo zpool upgrade <pool_name>

Confirm Upgrade

sudo zpool status

Refresh boot config

sudo pveboot-tool refresh

Confirm Boot configuration

cat /boot/grub/grub.cfg

You are looking for directives like this to see if they are indeed pointing at your existing rpool

root=ZFS=rpool/ROOT/pve-1 boot=zfs quiet

here is my file if it helps you compare…
