Description

Node auto-provisioning enabled clusters previously did not have support for Encryption at Host and disk encryption sets. This limited users with certain security requirements for their cluster to not be able to use node auto-provisioning.    

Node auto-provisioning now includes support for both Encryption at Host and disk encryption sets. This enables customers to use node auto-provisioning while meeting required encryption controls and gaining its associated compute efficiency, resiliency, and cost-management benefits.
