Note
For all examples in this file,
/path/to/volume is a LUKS device, not the plaintext device contained within; blkid -s type /path/to/volume should report type="crypto_LUKS".
Procedure 19.4. Saving encryption keys
- Run:
volume_key --save/path/to/volume-c/path/to/certescrow-packet - Save the generated
escrow-packetfile in the prepared storage, associating it with the system and the volume.
These steps can be performed manually, or scripted as part of system installation.
