Security Type
The
securityType
parameter is valid for physical disks that are capable of self encrypting disk (SED). With SED, the
RAID controller module firmware can create a key and activate the physical disk security feature. The physical disk
security feature encrypts data as the data is written to the physical disk and decrypts the data as the data is read from
the physical disk. Without the key created by the RAID controller module, the data written to the physical disk is
inaccessible.
Before you can set the
securityType
parameter to capable or enabled, you must create a storage array security
key. Use the
create storageArray securityKey
command to create a storage array security key. These
commands are related to the security key:
•
create storageArray securityKey
•
enable diskGroup [diskGroupName] security
•
export storageArray securityKey
•
import storageArray securityKey
•
set storageArray securityKey
•
start secureErase (physicalDisk | physicalDisks)
