Hi, thanks Milan firstly!
I use "dmsetup table --showkeys" get the bellow information.

disk$ sudo dmsetup table --showkeys /dev/mapper/dsi0
0 2040 crypt aes-xts-plain
3131313131313131313131313131313131313131313131313131313131313131 0 7:0
2056

If i forget the passphase, can i use the above information/key to
recovery my disk?

Best Regards
