> I very nearly permanently lost 8.5 TiB of data after performing what should've been a series of simple, routine ZFS operations but resulted in an undecryptable dataset. Time has healed the wound enough that I am no longer filled with anguish just thinking about it, so I will now share my experience in the hope that you may learn from my mistakes.
As a zfs user employing encryption, that read like a horror story. Great read, and thanks for the takeaway.
