NOTE: You can encrypt the volume only when the volume is first created. After a volume is
created, you cannot change whether it is encrypted or unencrypted. Expect slower

4. Enter a password in the Password field using a minimum of eight alphanumeric characters. The
password must consist of at least three of the following: lower-case character, upper-case
character, number (0-9), or a special character (such as #@*&^). The password must be entered
to unlock an encrypted volume when the NSS is started up following a power interruption,
shutdown, or reboot, or, if the volume was manually locked through the NSS configuration
interface.
WARNING: Because you need the password to decrypt a locked volume, keep a secure backup
of the password to ensure that it is accessible when required. There is no way to unlock the
volume without the password. (If the password is forgotten, the only way to retrieve the
password is if the password was saved in a configuration file. See Restoring the Configuration
(see Restoring a Configuration
5. Re-enter the password in the Confirm Password field.
