Encryption behavior
• HP recommends that the encrypted LUN containers be created when all of the nodes/encryption
engines (EEs) in the Data Encryption Key (DEK)/High Availability Cluster (HAC) are up and enabled.
• If two Encryption Engines are part of a High Availability Cluster, configure the host/target pair
such that they form a multipath from both EEs. Avoid connecting both the host/target pairs to
the same EE. This connectivity does not give full redundancy in case of EE failure resulting in
HAC failover.
• Since the quorum disk plays a vital role in keeping the cluster in sync, configure the quorum
disk to be outside of the encryption environment.
• LUN configuration
• To configure a LUN for encryption:
• Add the LUN as clear-text to the Crypto Target Container (CTC).
• When the LUN comes online and the clear-text host I/O starts, modify the LUN from clear-
text to encrypted, including the enable_encexistingdata option to convert the LUN
from clear-text to encrypted.
• An exception to this LUN configuration process: If the LUN was previously encrypted by the
HP Encryption Switch or HP Encryption Blade, the LUN can be added to the CTC with the
–encrypt and –lunstate =“encrypted” options.
• LUN configurations must be committed to take effect. No more than 25 LUNs can be added
or modified in a single commit operation. Attempts to commit configurations that exceed 25
LUNs will fail with a warning. There is also a five-second delay before the commit operation
takes effect.
