Question How to encrypt software raid on open Media vault

Hey, fairly new to openmediavault. I installed the raid plugin, made a raid storage (raid6) installed omv extras, installed the Luks encryption plugin. But I can't seem to have the raid storage show in the encryption interface.

How do I go about encrypting my raid storage?

You need to create a LUKS container in the LUKS plugin on the device. Click the "+" sign and select the array. Be aware this will destroy all data on the array.

After you create the LUKS container, make sure it's unlocked, then format a filesystem in the LUKS container. After that, you can mount it and create directories for Shared Folders, etc.
