cd zpool-scrub

sudo install -m 644 -o root -g root zpool-scrub@.service /etc/systemd/system
sudo install -m 644 -o root -g root zpool-scrub@.timer /etc/systemd/system

Replace <POOLNAME> with the name of your pool. Keep in mind that the path is /sbin/zpool in Ubuntu. On Arch Linux it is /usr/sbin/zpool. One has to change the service file accordingly if not used in Ubuntu. If you are unsure about the location, find out using:
