Encrypted Root LVM
This tutorial deals only with how to add an extra encrypted physical
volume to a volume group pool containing other encrypted physical
volumes. This is typical scenario if, at first, you have set up your
encryption at a physical partition level (/dev/sdaX where X is the a
number of your partition), then you setup your LVM on top of the
encrypted partition. If at some later time you want to add another
partition in your volume group, you will also want to have it encrypted
in order to maintain the same level of security.
