            Bug ID: 218679
           Summary: [geli] add a verify command
           Product: Base System
           Version: CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: bin
          Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: fhriley@gmail.com

When implementing a NAS system, it is typical for a ZFS pool to be created =
from
a set of disks where all of the disks in that pool have a common
passphrase/keyfile. When it comes time to replace disks or add disks to the
pool, the use case is to get the passphrase/keyfile from the user, verify i=
t is
correct, then set it on the new disks. Currently, there is no way to verify=
 a
passphrase/keyfile without modifying the system, i.e. without calling 'atta=
ch'
or 'setkey'. This report is for adding a 'verify' command so this use case =
can
be implemented.

A git pull request will be submitted to implement this.
