Zfs with disko, faluire to import zfs pool

So even when using qemu-kvm VM you don"t need

  boot = {
  zfs = {
      devNodes = "/dev/disk/by-uuid";
    };
  };

all you need to do is to set Serial for every disk

<disk type="file" device="disk">
  <driver name="qemu" type="qcow2" discard="unmap"/>
  <source file="/var/lib/libvirt/images/nixos-unstable-6-clone.qcow2" index="3"/>
  <backingStore/>
  <target dev="vdc" bus="virtio"/>
  <serial>third</serial>
  <alias name="virtio-disk2"/>
  <address type="pci" domain="0x0000" bus="0x07" slot="0x00" function="0x0"/>
</disk>

It is not set by default. and once you do you will see in your pool status

zpool status
  pool: boot-pool

config:

	NAME                     STATE     READ WRITE CKSUM
