Problem/Justification
Apps that use encrypted datasets start up while the datasets are still encrypted and thus those datasets will not be mounted in the docker container.
Similar to enable/disable “autostart” in Jails on Core.
Impact
Advantage is not having to stop and restart Apps again and no need to correct any settings, as you only start them up after first unlocking the dataset.
User Story
Especially Immich is an issue as the “external library” is not mounted when encrypted and then it leaves it empty. After stopping and starting the app, you need to go into Immich and the manually scan the library again.
Syncthing often uses an encrypted dataset too (as I do too).
