Right.

For a volume to be moved into NAE, it needs be encrypted.
Ideally, for the dedupe to work, you need to "encrypt with the aggregate key"

when you are moving the volume to NAE, you must specify -> -encrypt-with-aggr-key true 
If the destination volume is NOT NAE, then it will not work.

If the volume is NVE, it still needs to be converted with the "-encrypt-with-aggr-key true " during a move.

What is going with netapp and NAE encryption, none of the documenation make sense to me anymore.
I see you should be able to move non ecrypted volume into NAE aggigate, but I cannot
I get error, non-encrypted volumes are not supported in such aggegates
All i want is to have NAE encryption, and volumes in the NAE aggr to be not encrypted so I can have aggr level dedup

Thanks, but before last step I will blow up space, right?
At the moment that all volume are NVE I loose cross volume dedup and that what I cannot afford.
How can I account how much space for any aggregate I will “loose” if there is no cross volume dedup

First, enable a key manager
Then convert all data volumes to NVE
volume encrypt start …. 

After that, be sure any svm root volumes have been moved to the same aggregate. 

Then convert the aggregates without the svm to NAE -> aggregate modify -aggregate xx -encrypt

Move the svm root
Vol move start -volume svmroot -dest aggr-nae -encrypt-with-aggr-key true 

Encrypt the last aggregate

Now convert all the volumes to nae:
Vol move start -Vol xx -dest same-as-source -encrypt-with-aggr-key true

If you do not do the last step, you will not have full NAE. There is a kb about this as well
