Enabling Encryption on a New Volume

  1. Create a new volume and specify whether encryption is enabled on the volume. If the new volume is in an NAE aggregate, by default the volume will be an NAE volume:

›_ Console

 
Cluster1::> volume create -vserver SVM_name -volume volume_name aggregate aggregate_name 

Example  
Cluster1::> volume create -vserver svm1 -volume vol0 -aggregate aggr1
