Applies to
- ONTAP 9.11.1 and earlier
- FabricPool

Issue
- Volume encryption conversion is aborted because the capacity tier is unavailable:
[node1: wafl_exempt02: enc.operation.aborted:error]: Conversion to encryption scan is aborted in the volume 'enc_vol' (aggr 'aggr1'). Reason: Capacity Tier is unavailable.
- When the capacity tier becomes available, the encryption conversion is restarted from 0%:
