Verifying Disk Volumes Are Encrypted
To verify that a disk volume is encrypted, login the NAS as an administrator. Go
to “Storage Manager” > “Volumes”.
The encrypted disk volume will be shown on this page, with a lock icon under “Status”.
The lock will be shown as opened if the encrypted volume is unlocked. A disk volume
without the lock icon under “Status” is not encrypted.
Behaviors of encrypted volumes upon system reboot
An example is provided to illustrate the behavior of encrypted volumes upon system
reboot. In this example, there are two encrypted disk volumes on the NAS:
DataVol1 is created with the option “Save Encryption Key” enabled.
DataVol2 is created with the option “Save Encryption Key” disabled.
Note: For details on enabling or disabling the “Save Encryption Key” option, please
refer to Encryption Key Management .
After restarting the NAS, check the volume status. DataVol1 is locked, but DataVol2 is
unlocked and mounted. Since the encryption key is not saved on DataVol1, the
encryption password needs to be manually entered to unlock DataVol1.
