1min
create at least one encrypted dataset for the truenas / {{ch}} integration in this final stage, enabling truenas to start using kmip datasets exist inside storage pools, so you must create one if a storage pool does not already exist refer to the following article on the truenas documentation hub for setting up a storage pool https //www truenas com/docs/core/gettingstarted/storingdata/ https //www truenas com/docs/core/gettingstarted/storingdata/ encrypt a new dataset you can encrypt new datasets within an existing unencrypted storage pool without encrypting the entire pool to encrypt a single dataset, complete the following steps go to storage > pools , select the three vertical dots on the far right side of the menu for an existing dataset, and select \[ add dataset ] in the encryption options area, deselect inherit and select encryption choose one of the following authentications key or passphrase then select \[ submit ] if you chose the key authentication type for the new dataset, the zfs key is generated on the {{ch}} and retrieved by truenas as needed if you chose the passphrase option, kmip creates the passphrase only if you attach tcg opal capable disks to the nas being used
