Hi everyone, My setup runs off a dmcrypt/luks encrypted drive. I want to do daily unattended reboots, so I don't want to have to enter the password upon reboot. I thought of generating a random temporary key, inserting that into a secondary slot on my container using luksAddKey and preparing a custom initramfs containing that temporary key, so that the system can unlock the container once after the reboot. When the system is up and running again, I'll remove that random temporary key from both the container and the initramfs. My question is: Do dmcrypt/luks containers suffer from frequent key adding/removal? Will the container degrade because of this usage, or maybe get errors? If so, is there a better way for unattended reboots? Thanks a lot for any thoughts on that! Regards, L.
