SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

15       systemd-cryptsetup@.service is a service responsible for setting up
16       encrypted block devices. It is instantiated for each device that
17       requires decryption for access.
18
19       systemd-cryptsetup@.service will ask for hard disk passwords via the
20       password agent logic[1], in order to query the user for the password
21       using the right mechanism at boot and during runtime.
22
23       At early boot and when the system manager configuration is reloaded,
24       /etc/crypttab is translated into systemd-cryptsetup@.service units by
25       systemd-cryptsetup-generator(8).
