Comment on Trouble automounting a LUKS parition that is on a mdadm raid6
db_geek@norden.social 16 hours ago @Hercules So it was possible to use one of the other keyslots to open the encryption?
Probably you can test your wanted configuration in a virtual machine with some small virtual drives to avoid any loss of data.
I found it relative difficult to find the correct UUID which had to be used when I setup my system in the past.

No it wasn’t. Luckely the luks parition was still mounted on my system so im making a backup, recreating the partiiton and the restoring …
I found an article from RedHat on how to restore a luks1 partitions keys while it is still mounted but this isn’t possible with luks2 :/
@Hercules That was really luck. I hope, that your backup will be successful.
Until now I didn't used it, but probably I will also have a deeper look into luksHeaderBackup.
