== Name

cryptsetup-close - removes the existing mapping <name> (and the associated key)

== SYNOPSIS

*cryptsetup _close_ [<options>] <name>*

== DESCRIPTION

Removes the existing mapping <name> and wipes the key from kernel
memory.

For backward compatibility, there are *close* command aliases: *remove*,
*plainClose*, *luksClose*, *loopaesClose*, *tcryptClose*, *bitlkClose*
(all behave exactly the same, device type is determined automatically
from the active device).

*<options>* can be [--deferred, --cancel-deferred, --header, --disable-locks].
