9 cryptsetup status [<options>] <name>
10
12 Reports the status for the mapping <name>.
13
14 <options> can be [--header, --disable-locks].
15
17 --header <device or file storing the LUKS header>
18 Use a detached (separated) metadata device or file where the LUKS
19 header is stored. This option allows one to store ciphertext and
20 LUKS header on different devices.
21
22 For commands that change the LUKS header (e.g. luksAddKey), specify
23 the device or file with the LUKS header directly as the LUKS
24 device.
25
26 --disable-locks
27 Disable lock protection for metadata on disk. This option is valid
28 only for LUKS2 and ignored for other formats.
29
30 WARNING: Do not use this option unless you run cryptsetup in a
31 restricted environment where locking is impossible to perform
32 (where /run directory cannot be used).
33
34 --batch-mode, -q
35 Suppresses all confirmation questions. Use with care!
36
37 If the --verify-passphrase option is not specified, this option
38 also switches off the passphrase verification.
39
40 --debug or --debug-json
41 Run in debug mode with full diagnostic logs. Debug output lines are
42 always prefixed by #.
43
44 If --debug-json is used, additional LUKS2 JSON data structures are
45 printed.
46
47 --version, -V
48 Show the program version.
49
50 --usage
51 Show short option help.
52
53 --help, -?
54 Show help text and default parameters.
