    How to encrypt an existing dataset (vm disk)

    If I understand correct it is not possible to encrypt an existing dataset? What other options are there to change a vm on an unencrypted dataset to encrypted? Is it possible to create an encrypted dataset and copy the vm disk - without down time? Maybe by using snapshots?
