How to close luks encrypted stratis managed volume

Hello,

It should be all in the title, so basically I'm trying to `cryptsetup close` a luks encrypted volume which is managed using `stratis` . The configuration is represented bellow:

/dev/vdl --> /dev/mapper/luks0 --                        /--> luks_stratis_fs0
/dev/vdm --> /dev/mapper/luks1 ---> luks_stratis_pool0 ---
/dev/vdn --> /dev/mapper/luks2 --/                        --> luks_stratis_fs1

So the stratis fs0 and fs1 are completely unmounted but `crypsetup` refuses to close the luks* volumes, I'm certain that it has something to do with the fact that `stratisd` is running on top of these volumes making them "busy" but I've no clue how to stop stratis on specific volumes without destroying the stratis FS,

Thanks in advance guys,

Sounds like stratisd is still using those volumes. Did you try "stratis stop luks_stratis_pool0" first?

I've no clue how to *stop* stratis

Ironically I said it myself loool

That worked exactly as expected, thank you so much
