 Description   

We should document how to safely disable encrypt_binlog. The documentation doesn't currently say:

https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/replication-and-binary-log-server-system-variables/#encrypt_binlog

https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/data-at-rest-encryption/#encryption-of-binary-logs

It looks like the process should be as easy as:

1.) Stop the server.

2.) Set encrypt_binlog=OFF

3.) Start the server.

serg,

It looks like you implemented MDEV-8264. Does the new documentation here look correct to you?:
