New Pool, forced encryption?

[jackydany]

Hi there,

i am configuring a new freenas maschine.
The Problem is:

If i create a new volume with 4 disks as Raidz2 i dont check encryption because i dont need it and dont want it.

But on the console it says:
geom_eli: encryption aes-256 blablabla
encryption: software

Is this normal behaviour?
For me it sounds like the encryption is activated though i didnt check the box and dont want encryption.

I didnt find anything in the forums or on google.

Thank you for your help.

Stefan

The swap partitions are always encrypted.

AHHHH sounds reasonable :D

is it like ada4 then ada4p1.eli ??

Thanks

So its always:

Device ada4p1.eli created
encryption: AES-XTS 256
crypto: software

for all 4 drives ada1 to ada4

and i defenitly didnt check the box for encryption :(
but i dont think this is the swap partition, or is it?

Thanks

Yes--p1 is the swap partition, and p2 is the data partition. gpart list will confirm this.
