Restoring Instances with Encryption
410+
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
411+
412+
During restore operations, as with backup, data is transferred in
413+
unencrypted form. Administrators can force restored volumes to be encrypted
414+
by enabling the following global configuration:
415+
416+
::
417+
418+
integration.veeam.control.instance.encrypt.volumes = true
419+
420+
When this configuration is enabled, the plugin attempts to use encrypted disk
421+
offerings for data volumes and a compute offering with the ``encryptroot``
422+
flag set to ``true``. If no encrypted disk offering is available, the restore
423+
operation fails.
