Disruption is unavoidable. The tool I described earlier might be able
to encrypt in place, but it has to be done offline. I don't know how
near your backups are, but it would probably take me longer to
encrypt-in-place than to install and restore.
Thanks! Btw, either way, is it possible to encrypt a non-LVM partition? As I said before,
I have xfs and ext4 filesystems and do not want to get into LVM. Tried this a year ago,
and it was a royal mess.
Best wishes,
Ranjan
