From a45929021a0a2cca7a9d94e662ace605e3cbef20 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christos Longros <98426896+chrislongros@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Mon, 23 Mar 2026 17:21:08 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] zpool-list.8: clarify that only imported pools are listed (#18352) The man page stated "all pools in the system are listed" which is misleading, as only imported pools are shown. Clarify this and add a cross-reference to zpool-import(8) for discovering pools available for import.
