Detached one drive daNp4.eli, then I didn't found how to attach daNp4:

zpool attach encrypt 3680521480316264201 /dev/da3p4
cannot attach /dev/da3p4 to 3680521480316264201: no such pool or dataset

I could just attach (again) daNp4.eli:
zpool attach encrypt 3680521480316264201 /dev/da3p4.eli


Do I miss a step?
