+Filesystems created with CryFS 0.9.x are incompatible with the new storage |
| 29 |
+format. [1] Migration is necessary before mounting with CryFS 0.10 and |
| 30 |
+possible for old containers going back as far as CryFS 0.9.4. [2] |
| 31 |
+ |
| 32 |
+However, upstream recommend to create new containers with 0.10 to avoid |
| 33 |
+potential data loss from a failed migration, and in order to benefit from all |
| 34 |
+performance advantages of the new format. |
| 35 |
+ |
| 36 |
+Before updating, copy all data from cryfs containers to a temporary and secure |
| 37 |
+location. After the update, move it back into a newly created container. Don't |
| 38 |
+forget to remove the temporary files afterwards. |
| 39 |
+ |
| 40 |
+Users of KDE Plasma Vaults should follow the same procedure. To check the type |
| 41 |
+of existing containers, open them using the Vaults widget. It is part of the |
| 42 |
+path as displayed in dolphin. |
