Abstract: The present disclosure relates to bootstrapping an encrypted single node VSAN cluster. One method includes receiving a request to create an encrypted VSAN cluster from a single host in a software-defined datacenter, deploying a virtual server on a VSAN datastore of the software-defined datacenter, registering a native key provider (NKP) in the virtual server, creating an empty VSAN cluster encrypted by the NKP, adding the single host to the encrypted empty cluster to create a one-host encrypted cluster, registering a KMIP KMS in the virtual server, switching encryption of the one-host encrypted cluster from the NKP to the KMIP KMS, and adding another host to the one-host encrypted cluster to create the encrypted cluster.
