Description
I have set up RHEL 8.0 with python2 since python3 is not supported (https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/azure-docs/issues/31857)
```
# cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux release 8.0 (Ootpa)
# python --version
Python 2.7.15
```
Getting an error when trying to encrypt the OS disk:
```

As for the Data disk, it gets encrypted, but no entry is added back to fstab after a reboot the encrypted volume does not get decrypted and mounted.
