NAME

6       clevis-luks-pass - Extracts the passphrase used for binding a
7       particular slot in a LUKS device
8

SYNOPSIS

10       clevis luks pass -d DEV -s SLT
11

OVERVIEW

13       The clevis luks pass command extracts the passphrase used for binding a
14       particular slot in a LUKS device. For example:
15
16           clevis luks pass -d /dev/sda1 -s 1
17

OPTIONS

19       •   -d DEV : The LUKS device on which to extract a passphrase from
20
21       •   -s SLT : The slot to use for extracting the passphrase
22

EXAMPLE

24           clevis luks pass -d /dev/sda1 -s 1
25           <passphrase here>
26
27       Note that the output of clevis luks pass might be non-printable, in
28       which case it would be better to redirect its output to a file and use
29       it as a key file together with cryptsetup. For instance:
30
31           clevis luks pass -d /dev/sda1 -s 1 > slot1-passphrase
32
33       And the file slot1-passphrase will contain the passphrase associated
34       with slot #1 in /dev/sda1.
