It currently uses 7 SCSI disks mashed together with gstripe. I've recently replaced this box with a new one running a ZFS setup. I'm now wanting to turn the old one into a storage device running ZFS, but I want the entire pool encrypted with GELI. I know I can do this, but my requirements are as such: - use a key on external media to access the GELI encrypted disks - not have to type in the passphrase for each physical disk ...is this possible? Here is a reference to what I am after: (Google Groups): http://tinyurl.com/4xrysl Thanks for any consideration, Steve
