$ man dracut

crypto LUKS
        rd_NO_LUKS
           disable crypto LUKS detection

        rd_LUKS_UUID=3D<luks uuid>
           only activate the LUKS partitions with the given UUID Any
           "luks-" of the LUKS UUID is removed before comparing to
           <luks uuid>.  The comparisons also matches, if <luks uuid> i=
s
           only the beginning of the LUKS UUID, so you don=92t have to
           specify the full UUID.
