LUKS and LVM best practices (with Oracle database)

RataginAug 18 2022

I see a lot of instructions on creating LUKS volumes from /dev/sdc.
Q: Is it ok to use part of an LVM VG instead? e.g.

    # cryptsetup luksFormat /dev/mapper/lv_secretstuff

Q: Is this typically done for Oracle database volumes or will it degrade performance too much?
