This step disables encryption of the OS or the data volume or both on the running Windows IaaS VM. However, as mentioned in the previous section, disabling OS disk encryption for Linux isn't supported. The decryption step is allowed only for data drives on Linux VMs as long as the OS disk isn't encrypted.
It seems it does not support decryption of Linux OS disk, and only support for the data disk. For details about decryption, see Decryption workflow.
