Here is another suggestion for a message:

"Please supply the passphrase to unlock disk dasda2_crypt"

That leaves open where the passphrase would come from but makes clear that the 
unlocking process requires to obtain some passphrase.
"Enter" clearly makes only sense in an interactive setting.

As for the value of dm-crypt for z Systems (and other servers).
You are right serer disks cannot easily be stolen lie laptop disks can. But 
server data residing typically on some remote storage serve in some SAN might  
be accessible by unauthorized systems. Further the owner of the storage 
subsystem and the Linux image may not be the same (cloud scenario). dm-crpt 
provides E2E security for the date of the owner of the operating system.
