1. A method performed by a first storage provisioning node of a system for provisioning storage in the system, the method comprising:
in response to a first request for an encrypted storage volume for an application node, initiating transmission of a second request towards a second storage provisioning node for an unencrypted storage volume; and
in response to the requested unencrypted storage volume becoming available to the first storage provisioning node, generating an encrypted storage volume from the unencrypted storage volume and initiating provisioning of the encrypted storage volume to make the encrypted storage volume available at a compute node of the system for use by the application node.
