Backing up and Restoring Encrypted Data

When a share is restored using the ZFS restore function, the restored share inherits the encryption properties of the target project if the original share inherited its encryption properties from the source project.

To ensure encryption properties of an original share are maintained in a restored share, configure encryption on the original share instead of inheriting it from its project.

If you want to set encryption differently for an individual share within a project, manually configure encryption for the individual source share, instead of letting the share inherit its properties from the project. This ensures that all shares are backed up and restored with the desired encryption settings.
