Hi all,

Currently when cinder creates a volume with an encrypted volume type from an image(which is unencrypted), it just reads data from image, and writes them
Into the volume.
As a result the encrypted volume contains unencrypted data, and Nova fails to boot from the volume.

I would like to implement the function that when creating an encrypted volume from an image, cinder reads data, encrypts and writes to the volume. 
So that the encrypted volume contains encrypted data as it should be.

Anyone else is working on it? 
Any suggestions?

Best wishes
Lisa
