evfs_user = evfsuser

emd_envelopes = 1024

emd_digest = sha1

data_cipher = aes-128-cbc #aes-192-cbc or aes-256-cbc

trace_file = /var/opt/evfs/evfstrace.log

trace_size = 100 #MBytes

trace_level = 2 # error

trace_kernel_modules = keytbl:evold # kernel modules traced, separated by ’:’

kernel_encryption_mode = distributed

key_manager = keymgr

keymgr_reset_passphrase = no

file_cipher = aes-128-cfb

efs_recovery_keyname = efs

In the above example, public and private keys are stored locally, and the EVFS pseudo-user name is

evfsuser. Volume data is encrypted using the AES algorithm symmetric cipher with a 256-bit key

length.
