I have a machine with 4.7 softraid CRYPTO.
On the upgrade48.html it's recommended to rebuild the softraid volume
to use some of the upcoming features.
Thing is I can't rebuild a CRYPTO softraid volume. 

# bioctl -v softraid0                                                                                                             
Volume  Status               Size Device  
softraid0 0 Online         5371066880 sd2     CRYPTO
      0 Online         5371066880 0:0.0   noencl <sd1h>
                                                 'unknown serial'
# bioctl -v -R /dev/sd1h sd2
bioctl: BIOCSETSTATE: Invalid argument
# dmesg | tail -n1
softraid0: discipline does not support rebuild

Will this pose a problem in the future?

Cheers,

I believe "rebuild" means "dump and restore" here.
