Ok, sounds like you can just run lxc storage delete default then and things should be back to normal.
Thanks, Graber, you saved my night.
Appreciate your help.

Error: Failed initializing storage pool "lxd": ZFS zpool exists but dataset is missing
My container zpool was default (before I created the lxd pool manually):
$ sudo zpool list
NAME SIZE ALLOC FREE EXPANDSZ FRAG CAP DEDUP HEALTH ALTROOT
default 46,5G 9,15G 37,3G - 28% 19% 1.00x ONLINE -
lxd 1008M 684K 1007M - 0% 0% 1.00x ONLINE -
but for some reason, lxd tried to load the lxd pool but have failed since it did not exist.
I tried removing rows from /var/snap/lxd/common/lxd/database/global/db.bin in tables storage_pools_config and storage_pools where the lxd pool was mentionned, with no success as lxd adds them again at boot.
Any clue?
Thank you,
