If there are CryptoTarget container/LUN configurations on the node and the
encryption engines of this node are part of any HA Cluster configuration, this
command prompts you to either continue leaving the encryption group while
retaining the configuration, or to abort the leave operation. It is recommended that
you remove the EEs from the HA cluster and delete any CryptoTarget container
and Crypto LUN configurations from this node prior to initiating a leave operation.
--genmasterkey
Generates a master key. A master key is needed when an opaque key vault such
as DPM is used. The master key must be exported (backed up) before it may be
used. This command is valid only on the group leader. Only one master key per
key vault is needed for the entire encryption group. When a master key is
generated and a master key exists, the current master key becomes the alternate
master Key and the newly generated master key becomes the current master key.
--exportmasterkey
Exports the current master key encrypted in a key generated from a specified
pass phrase. By default this command backs up the key to the attached key
vaults, or optionally to a predetermined file on the switch. This command is valid
only on the group leader. This command prompts for a pass phrase.
passphrase
Specifies the pass phrase for the master key encryption. A pass phrase must be
between 8 and 40 characters in length and can contain any character
combination. Make a note of the pass phrase, because the same pass phrase is
required to restore the master key from backup. This operand is required.
-file
Stores the encrypted master key in a predetermined file on the switch. This
operand is optional. If the -file operand is not specified, the encrypted master key
is stored in the attached key vaults, using a unique associate Key ID for tracking
the export. Upon execution, this command displays both the associated Key ID
and the master key ID. You can export the master key to the key vault more than
once. Each time you export the same master key, the associate key ID is
incremented, and both the master key ID and the associate key are displayed.
Make a note of the key ID, because you will need same key ID is to restore the
master key from backup.
--recovermasterkey
Restores the master key from backup. This command is valid only on the group
leader. This command prompts for a pass phrase:
passphrase
Specifies the pass phrase for recovering the master key. The pass phrase must be
the same that was used to back up the master key with the --exportmasterkey
command.
currentMK | alternateMK
Specifies whether the master key should be restored to the current position or the
alternate position. This command replaces the specified existing master key and
should be exercised with caution. A master key is typically restored to the
alternate position to enable decryption of older data encryption keys (DEKs) that
were encrypted in that master key.
-keyID keyID
Specifies the associative master key ID. This option restores the master key from
the key vault. The associative master key ID was returned when it was backed up
to the key vault with the --exportmasterkey command. The -keyID and the
-srcfile options are mutually exclusive.
