IBM Security Key Lifecycle Manager for System x SEDs - FoD (SKLM - FoD) is an optional feature, which
is available in System x environments that centralizes, simplifies, and automates the data encryption key
management process to help minimize risk and reduce operational costs. SKLM - FoD offers a simple and
robust solution for key storage, key serving, and key lifecycle management for self-encrypting drives
(SEDs) in local and distributed System x environments. The FoD upgrade can be configured with the
ServeRAID M5210 and M1215 RAID controllers paired with SEDs. The following table lists SKLM-FoD part
