I just installed Fedora 31 on my laptop. I had created a volume group and
logical volumes from the Anaconda installer itself. I had marked the
checkbox for encrypting my fedora partition , and when booting I am asked
my passphrase, so I thought everything was fine.

But when I am booting into a live environment and do an `lsblk` . This is
my output:

```
NAME                              MAJ:MIN RM   SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
sda                                 8:0    0 931.5G  0 disk
├─sda1                              8:1    0   512M  0 part
├─sda2                              8:2    0   512M  0 part
└─sda3                              8:3    0 930.5G  0 part
  ├─vgfedora-root-real            253:0    0   700G  0 lvm
  │ ├─vgfedora-root               253:1    0   700G  0 lvm
  │ └─vgfedora-before_hibernate   253:3    0   700G  0 lvm
  └─vgfedora-before_hibernate-cow 253:2    0    50G  0 lvm
    └─vgfedora-before_hibernate   253:3    0   700G  0 lvm
```

1. **How on earth are my Volume Groups visible from the live environment?**
I did not even open up with `cryptsetup open --type luks2 /dev/sda3` . What
is going on here ?
2. As you can see **I have created a snapshot, is that even encrypted ?**
Or is it only my root ? **I need everything to be encrypted even
snapshots.**
3. I can even do a `vgchange -a y` and select all my logical volumes.
**This really should not happen as it should not even be visible from the
live environment** . Again what is going on ?
4. **How can I verify what is encrypted and what is not ?**

My understanding was that the LVM would not even be visible since it is
under encryption. So how am I able to detect it from the live environment ?

Let me know if any other information is required.

Thanks.
