NAME

       cryptsetup-config - set permanent configuration options (store to LUKS header)

SYNOPSIS

       cryptsetup config <options> <device>

DESCRIPTION

       Set permanent configuration options (store to LUKS header). The config command is
       supported only for LUKS2.

       The permanent options can be --priority to set priority (normal, prefer, ignore) for
       keyslot (specified by --key-slot) or --label and --subsystem.

       <options> can be [--priority, --label, --subsystem, --key-slot, --header,
       --disable-locks].

OPTIONS

       --key-slot, -S <0-N>
           For LUKS operations that add key material, this option allows you to specify which key
           slot is selected for the new key.

           The maximum number of key slots depends on the LUKS version. LUKS1 can have up to 8
           key slots. LUKS2 can have up to 32 key slots based on key slot area size and key size,
           but a valid key slot ID can always be between 0 and 31 for LUKS2.

       --header <device or file storing the LUKS header>
           Use a detached (separated) metadata device or file where the LUKS header is stored.
           This option allows one to store ciphertext and LUKS header on different devices.

           For commands that change the LUKS header (e.g. luksAddKey), specify the device or file
           with the LUKS header directly as the LUKS device.

       --disable-locks
           Disable lock protection for metadata on disk. This option is valid only for LUKS2 and
           ignored for other formats.

           WARNING: Do not use this option unless you run cryptsetup in a restricted environment
           where locking is impossible to perform (where /run directory cannot be used).

       --priority <normal|prefer|ignore>
           Set a priority for LUKS2 keyslot. The prefer priority marked slots are tried before
           normal priority. The ignored priority means, that slot is never used, if not
           explicitly requested by --key-slot option.

       --label <LABEL> --subsystem <SUBSYSTEM>
           Set label and subsystem description for LUKS2 device. The label and subsystem are
           optional fields and can be later used in udev scripts for triggering user actions once
           the device marked by these labels is detected.

       --batch-mode, -q
           Suppresses all confirmation questions. Use with care!

           If the --verify-passphrase option is not specified, this option also switches off the
           passphrase verification.

       --debug or --debug-json
           Run in debug mode with full diagnostic logs. Debug output lines are always prefixed by
           #.

           If --debug-json is used, additional LUKS2 JSON data structures are printed.

       --version, -V
           Show the program version.

       --usage
           Show short option help.

       --help, -?
           Show help text and default parameters.

REPORTING BUGS

       section <https://gitlab.com/cryptsetup/cryptsetup/-/issues/new>.

       Please attach output of the failed command with --debug option added.
