Changed "cryptsetup-reencrypt" to "cryptsetup reencrypt" and added note on why.

You may add to your post to use lsblk --fs to figure out what is the <device_path> to decrypt

Note for me, after I did steps 2 and 3 above (under "for LUKS2") I had to reboot to avoid issues like this: Attaching loopback device failed (loop device with autoclear flag is required)

Minor improvement to formatting

After doing this on a CentOS system (RH probably similiar) you must take a few more steps to allow it to boot (assuming it was a boot partition). Boot from a Install Media, and Rescue the system. chroot in the system /mnt/sysroot. remove /etc/crypttab. Edit /etc/default/grub and remove the luks portion. Regenerate the grub config: grub2-mkconfig -o /etc/efi/EFI/centos/grub.cfg Reinstall grub. yum reinstall grub2-efi (This part was a little tricky, without internet access, but there is a package repo on the recovery disk) | |
