58 <citerefentry><refentrytitle>homectl

59 configured or assigned the empty string, the default storage is automatically determined: if not
60 running in a container environment and
<filename>/home/
</filename> is not itself encrypted, defaults
61 to
<literal>luks

<literal>subvolume
</literal> if
62 <filename>/home/
</filename> is on a btrfs file system, and
<literal>directory
</literal>
63 otherwise. Note that the storage selected on the
